Summary This project will help us to have a more accurate and useful explanation at molecular level, of the damage caused by HIV when it infects the central nervous sythem (CNS) in Humans. CNS dysfunction is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with human immunodeficiency virus-I (HIV-1) infection and the acquired immunodeficiency virus syndrome (AIDS). Minor cognitive/motor dysfunction (MCMD) and HIV-1-associated dementia (HAD) develop in the absence of opportunistic infections and lymphoma, cerebrovascular disease and metabolic disorders. Patients with HAD may or may not present an associated HIV encephalitis with viral replication limited to cells of monocyte origin. The inflammatory infiltrates of HIVE include activated microglia and perivascular and parenchymal monocytes, multinucleated giant cells and lymphocytes. In addition, HIVE may be accompanied by significant loss of neurons, presynaptic terminals and abnormal dendrites.
To determine if altered expression of neuronal growth factor, chemokine and cell death genes identified possible mechanisms of brain injury in AIDS patients with and without HIVE
Changes of gene expression occurring in brain of AIDS patients with and without HIVE, induce development of brain atrophy, mild gliosis, enhanced vascular permeability, along with alterations in neuronal HIV-1 chemokine coreceptors. In the cases of HIVE more remarkable gene expression changes result in significant loss of neurons, presynaptic terminals and abnormal dendrites. All these changes can be evaluated by microarray gene expression analysis and validated by Q-RT-PCR
