HIV infection's research paper

Abstract of HIV infection's research paper

---

The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV) is a retrovirus which preferentially infects an important class of immune cells governing the immune system, the lymphocytes of the CD4+ phenotype. HIV infection leads to a complex immunologic disorder combining a progressive decrease in CD4 T cells and a chronic activation of T and B cells, associated with increased serum concentrations of β2 microglobulin and other immune activation markers.
