The increased production of monocytes with immunosuppressive transcriptional profiles predicts the development of SIV encephalitis
HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) remain common despite antiretroviral therapy. We previously demonstrated that increased percentages of newly generated BrdU-labeled (BrdU+) monocytes predict AIDS progression and SIV encephalitis (SIVE) as early as 8 and consistently by 21 days post-infection (DPI) in SIV-infected macaques, but their molecular identity remained unknown. We performed…
