(2009)
It has been predicted that CD4 C868T, a novel CD4 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) that has
been found to be highly prevalent among Africans, changes the tertiary structure of CD4, which may alter susceptibility to ...
HIV-1 RNA Dysregulates the natural TLR response to subclinical endotoxemia in Kenyan female sex-workers
(2009)
Subclinical endotoxemia has been reported in HIV-1 infected persons and may drive systemic immune
activation and pathogenesis. Proinflammatory responsiveness to endotoxin (LPS) is mediated by Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4).
