respond to the presence of viral DNA by sacrificing themselves via pyroptosis—a highly inflammatory form of cell death that lures more CD4 T cells to the area, thereby creating a vicious cycle that ...
The decrease in CD4 cells during HIV infection seems to be driven by immune activation, which does not always correlate with viral load. Experienced clinicians are all too familiar with the ...
CD4-positive T cells are a subtype of lymphocyte. They are MHC class II-restricted and are important mediators of adaptive immunity. These cells are involved in both the induction and the ...
