HIV infection of AMs (as a model for reduced mannose receptor expression and function) was associated with impaired F-actin polymerization, reduced Cdc42 and Rho activation, and markedly reduced PAK-1 phosphorylation in response to Pc organisms.

HIV infection of monocyte-derived DCs and circulating BDCA-1-positive DCs was significantly reduced upon the presence of virus-specific but non-neutralizing IgGs.
HIV infection increased the protein concentrations of HIPK2 by promoting oxidative stress, which inhibited the seven in absentia homolog 1 (SIAH1)-mediated proteasomal degradation of HIPK2.
HIV infection downregulates the Foxp3 expression in Treg, which is followed by the loss of suppressive capacity and alterations in cytokine secretion pattern, with decreased production of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) and an increased production of interleukin (IL)-4.
HIV-infection was independently associated with increased platelet reactivity regardless of the test used (RPA: P = 0.005; PRU: P < 0.001 and VASP-PRI: P < 0.001) and a higher proportion of HPR (OR = 7.6; P < 0.001; OR = 2.06; P = 0.06; OR = 2.91; P = 0.004, respectively) in response to P2Y12 inhibitors.
HIV infection was associated with increased H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> in the BAL, decreased AM mRNA and protein levels of PPARγ, and increased AM mRNA and protein levels of Nox1, Nox2, Nox4, and TGFβ<sub>1</sub>.
HIV infection and its proteins are known to disrupt physiological differentiation of MSC; increased gp120-driven migration amplifies the total MSC population destined for ineffective and inappropriate differentiation, thus contributing to the pathogenesis of HIV-related comorbidities.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is associated with oxidative stress, but there is limited data on the frequency of deleted GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes in HIV/AIDS patients and their effect on progression among Ghanaians.
