This may allow older animals to react effectively to previously encountered parasites, but infection by novel agents, and eventual depletion of plasma cell reserves, could both still be factors in the near-synchronous mortality of adult shrews observed shortly after breeding. keywords: adult; animals; araneus; aselli; cells; follicles; pancreas; plasma; shrews; sub cache: cord-000006-104sqoxz.txt plain text: cord-000006-104sqoxz.txt item: #2 of 672 id: cord-000008-3dgjv0x1 author: Vali, Bahareh title: HIV-Specific T-Cells Accumulate in the Liver in HCV/HIV Co-Infection date: 2008-10-20 words: 5272 flesch: 42 summary: Effect of human immunodeficiency virus on hepatitis C virus infection among injecting drug users Impaired hepatitis C virus-specific T cell responses and recurrent hepatitis C virus in HIV coinfection Retrospective analysis of the impact of HIV infection and alcohol use on chronic hepatitis C in a large cohort of drug users Influence of human immunodeficiency virus infection on the course of hepatitis C virus infection: a meta-analysis Hepatotoxicity associated with antiretroviral therapy in adults infected with human immunodeficiency virus and the role of hepatitis C or B virus infection Pathogenic roles of tumor necrosis factor receptor p55-mediated signals in dimethylnitrosamine-induced murine liver fibrosis The role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha in liver toxicity, inflammation, and fibrosis induced by carbon tetrachloride Impaired effector function of hepatitis C virus-specific CD8+ T cells in chronic hepatitis C virus infection HIV longterm non-progressors maintain brisk CD8 T cell responses to other viral antigens CD8+ cell responses to hepatitis C virus (HCV) in the liver of persons with HCV-HIV coinfection versus HCV monoinfection Comparison of HCV-specific intrahepatic CD4+ T cells in HIV/HCV versus HCV Human immunodeficiency virus type 1-hepatitis C virus coinfection: intraindividual comparison of cellular immune responses against two persistent viruses Analysis of total human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses: relationship to viral load in untreated HIV infection HIV-specific CD8+ lymphocytes in semen are not associated with reduced HIV shedding Severe CD4+ T-cell depletion in gut lymphoid tissue during primary human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection and substantial delay in restoration following highly active antiretroviral therapy HIV nonprogressors preferentially maintain highly functional HIV-specific CD8+ T cells Polyfunctional analysis of human t cell responses: importance in vaccine immunogenicity and natural infection The liver as a site of T-cell apoptosis: graveyard, or killing field?
