Star-Shaped Glatiramer Acetate Mitigates Pulmonary Dysfunction and Brain Neurodegeneration in a Murine Model of Cryptococcus-Associated IRIS.

Cryptococcal-associated immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (C-IRIS) is a clinical worsening or new presentation of cryptococcal disease following the initiation of antiretroviral therapy. C-IRIS is primarily driven by an influx of pathological CD4 T cells, which triggers a hyperinflammatory response.
