Journal ArticleDOI

Immunocytochemical quantitation of human immunodeficiency virus in the brain: Correlations with dementia

TL;DR: It is concluded that the presence of macrophages and microglia is a better correlate with HIV‐associated dementia than is the presence and amount of HIV‐infected cells in the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

From gut dysbiosis to altered brain function and mental illness: mechanisms and pathways

TL;DR: Roles of gut microbiome in shaping brain development and neurological function, and the mechanisms by which it can contribute to mental illness are examined; how the insight provided by this new and exciting field of research can inform care and provide a basis for the design of novel, microbiota-targeted, therapies is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction of nitric oxide synthase in demyelinating regions of multiple sclerosis brains.

TL;DR: The results implicate the free radical nitric oxide in the pathogenesis of demyelinating MS lesions and the presence and distribution of NADPH diaphorase were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intracerebral cytokine messenger RNA expression in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome dementia.

TL;DR: Levels of IL‐4 messenger RNA were decreased in dementia and the loss of this and other macrophage downregulatory factors in demented patients may contribute to the increased expression of tumor necrosis factor‐α.
Journal ArticleDOI

Localization of HIV-1 in human brain using polymerase chain reaction/in situ hybridization and immunocytochemistry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combined the techniques of the polymerase chain reaction with in situ hybridization for the detection of HIV DNA, and used immunocytochemistry to identify the HIV-expressing cells.
