Organs of the immune system and the
normal immune response
Foreign antigens are ingested and
processed by macrophages
Processed antigens are presented to
helper T-lymphocytes that recruit Blymphocytes
B-lymphocytes produce antibodies
Antibodies attach to the antigens on
pathogens and recruit macrophages
and other cells to destroy the
pathogen
Once the pathogen is eliminated,
suppressor T-cells shut down the
immune response
Effects of HIV infection on the immune
system
HIV infects helper T-cells (also known as CD4+ cells)
The infected CD4+ cells become “HIV factories”
Infected CD4+ cells die because of HIV infection itself
and because of the immune response directed at
destroying HIV
After years of ongoing infection, immune exhaustion
leads to massive CD4+ cell depletion and the inability to
fight off opportunistic infections and unusual
malignancies
Patient #1
24 y/o male
Graduate student at UM
In good health all his life
MSM; sexually active without protection
Abruptly develops fever, chills, a reddish rash on
the skin, a very sore throat, swollen lymph nodes
in his neck, intense headache made worse by
light, nausea and vomiting

In <5% of patients, latency may last for the remainder of their lives
Clinical manifestations of the acute
retroviral syndrome
Occurs in 50-90% of
individuals infected with
HIV
Occurs 2-4 weeks after
the infection
Typically, the process
goes on for 2-4 weeks and
is self-limited
Described as “the worst
flu ever”

- Death from AIDS or any AIDS-defining event, Hodgkin’s lymphoma
• Any serious non–AIDS-related event
- CVD (myocardial infarction, stroke, or coronary revascularization) or death from CVD, end-stage renal disease (initiation of dialysis or
renal transplantation) or death from renal disease, liver disease (decompensated liver disease) or death from liver disease, non–AIDSdefining cancer (except for basal-cell or squamous cell skin cancer) or death from cancer, and any death not attributable to AIDS

Both for serious and non-serious AIDS
events
Majority (68%) of the primary endpoints
occurred in patients with a CD4 >500

Similar significant reductions were
noted across all patient subgroups
No increase in adverse events associated
with immediate versus deferred ART
Mean CD4 count in immediate ART arm
was 194 cells/mm3 higher versus deferred

Patients on antiretroviral therapy
(ART)
Modern ART successfully suppresses viral
replication and leads to gradual restoration of
CD4+ cell counts in >90% of patients
However, there is ongoing systemic inflammation
and these patients are not immunologically
normal
Many organ systems are aging prematurely
Systems affected by ongoing inflammation and
premature aging in patients on successful ART
Cardiovascular: heart attacks, strokes
Central nervous system: neurocognitive impairment
Metabolic: diabetes and glucose intolerance, abnormal
lipid levels, abnormal fat distribution (lipodystrophy)
Bones: osteoporosis and premature fractures
Renal: impaired kidney function
Hepatic: greatly accelerated progression of chronic
hepatitis B and C
Among patients successfully treated with
antiretroviral agents with complete viral
suppression, there is no more systemic
inflammation and the aging process is normal
