The Effect of Drugs of Abuse and HIV-1 GP120 on Autophagy in Astrocytes
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2016)The life expectancy of individuals infected with HIV-1 has significantly improved since the introduction of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART). However, this has led to an increase in the prevalence of HIV-associated ... -
The effect of HIV-1 Tat and methamphetamine on expression of cytokines/chemokines and synaptic genes: Implications in HIV neuroAIDS
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) enters the brain through blood brain barrier (BBB) early after the infection and leads to various neurological complications including HIV associated dementia (HAD). Introduction ... -
The effects of HIV-1 viral protein r (vpr) and anti-retroviral drugs in the brain: Implications in HIV-1 associated neurocognitive disorders
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2016)The morbidity and mortality of HIV-1 infected individuals has declined significantly by the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Nevertheless, different forms of HIV-1 associated neurocognitive ... -
HIV-1 gp120 and Methamphetamine-mediated Induction of Proinflammatory Cytokines/chemokines and Oxidative Stress in Astrocytes: Implications in Neuroinflammation
(2014-04-02)HIV associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) remains a major concern for patients infected with HIV. The viral envelope protein, gp120 has been extensively studied and some of its neurotoxic effects are due to the increased ... -
Proinflammatory Cytokine / Chemokine Expression in Human Astrocytes: Induction by HIV-1 Nef
(2014)The mortality and morbidity of HIV-1 infected individuals were declined significantly by the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Nevertheless, different forms of HIV-associated neurocognitive ...
