The proportion of CD8+T cells that express CD38+, a surrogate of activation marker, can predict the subsequent decline of the CD4+T cell population [23] and was correlated with high viral load levels in HIV infected individuals [24]
The proportion of CD8+T cells that express CD38+, a surrogate of activation marker, can predict the subsequent decline of the CD4+T cell population [23] and was correlated with high viral load levels in HIV infected individuals [24]. AVL/HIV-AIDS presented low CD4+T cell counts in spite of low or undetectable viral load. Expression of CD38 on…
