Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Soluble CD14 (sCD14) levels were longitudinally analyzed in eighty-five HIV-infected subjects after a long-term suppressive cART and compared to young and elderly control HIV-negative groups. cART did not normalize sCD14 levels; in fact, HIV-infected subjects displayed significantly higher sCD14 levels at baseline pre-cART, 1-year and 5-years cART compared to both controls. Furthermore, baseline pre-cART CD4 T-cell counts were inversely associated with baseline pre-cART sCD14 levels.Our results point to the necessity of complementary therapies to treat the activated/inflamed status associated with chronic HIV-infection and to the benefit of an early initiation of cART.
