From the resolution of primary infection until the CD4 cell count falls below 500/microL, people with HIV are usually functioning at their normal capacity physically, mentally and socially. However, HIV is replicating actively within lymph nodes during this period of early immune deficiency. It is important to determine the rate of immune depletion and to assess what factors, if any, may be hastening that progression.

Introduction: Parkin-mediated mitophagy is essential for the clearance of damaged mitochondria, and it inhibits tumour development. The role of mitophagy in modulating tumour immunity is becoming clearer, but the underlying mechanism is still poorly understood.
Objective: This study was designed to examine the role for Parkin in the immune microenvironment of liver tumors induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl).

Human cancers are generally thought to develop over the course of decades. Such slow progression is well documented for a variety of cancers that we designate "slow-onset" cancers. "Rapid-onset" cancers, in contrast, can develop in a matter of months in humans or in as little as 9 days in mice.

Decades of research have defined the function of interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) in the antiviral immune response. Interferon regulatory factor-1 (IRF-1) is the founding member of the IRF family, with recognized antiviral effects across diverse virus infections. While most antiviral activities of IRF-1 were defined in vitro, fewer studies examined the role of IRF-1 during viral infection of an intact host.

Selenium (Se) is an essential element for humans, playing a critical role in the functioning of the immune system. The global prevalence of dietary Se deficiency is a significant public health concern, largely attributed to the low levels of Se present in crops. The sufficient Se in plants and humans is determined by the presence of stable Se sources in the soil.

Aging of the brain vasculature plays a key role in the development of neurovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, thereby contributing to cognitive impairment. Among other factors, DNA damage strongly promotes cellular aging, however, the role of genomic instability in brain endothelial cells (EC) and its potential effect on brain homeostasis is still largely unclear. We here investigated how endothelial aging impacts blood-brain barrier (BBB) function by using excision repair cross complementation group 1 (ERCC1)-deficient human brain ECs and an EC-specific Ercc1 knock out (EC-KO) mouse model.
