title: The immunopathogenesis of AIDS.
abstract: In summary, the understanding of the pathogenesis of immune dysfunction in HIV infection is incomplete. New mechanisms by which HIV disrupts the immune system through alterations in basic biochemical events in CD4 T cells are continually being discovered. In a positive light, because of the complexity involved in HIV-mediated induction of immune suppression, logic suggests there is potential for reversing some of these processes.
