Characterized by a gradual deterioration of immune function. During the course of infection, crucial immune cells called CD4+ T cells are disabled and killed, and their numbers progressively decline. CD4+ T cells play a crucial role in the immune response, signaling other cells in the immune system to perform their special functions. 4, record 1, English, - HIV%20infection

The term AIDS is used to indicate only the most severe diseases or clinical conditions(i. e., infections, neoplasm) observed in the continuum of illness related to infection with the retrovirus human immunodeficiency virus type 1(HIV-1).

Classification des infections à V.I.H. Les conséquences de l'infection par le V.I.H. ne se limitent pas à la forme majeure de cette infection : le S.I.D.A. Par le passé, des formes intermédiaires ont été décrites dénommées par des termes imparfaits de pré-S.I.D.A. ou de para-S.I.D.A.; celui qui s'est imposé le plus longtemps est celui d'A.R.C. (A.I.D.S. related complex). 1, record 1, French, - infection%20%C3%A0%20VIH

La infección comienza cuando el virus encuentra a una célula CD4; entonces la glucoproteína 120 (Gp120) de la superficie del VIH se une estrechamente al receptor CD4 en la superficie de la célula; las membranas del virus y la célula se fusionan con la intervención de otra glucoproteína de la superficie del virus, llamada Gp41, para que las proteínas, enzimas y el corazón viral que contiene el RNA del VIH, sean introducidas en la célula ahora infectada. 1, record 1, Spanish, - infecci%C3%B3n%20por%20VIH

Le génome viral du VIH comprend 3 gènes principaux soit le gag, le pol et l'env. Les glycoprotéines 120 et gp41 sont codées par le gène env tandis que le gène gag code les protéines du noyau telles les p55, p40, p24, p17, et p7; le gène pol code les protéines p66 et p51 (transcriptase inverse), p11 (protéase), et p32 (intégrase). Quoique toutes ces protéines virales du VIH, incluant le p24 et le gp41, sont très immunogéniques, la production d'anticorps dépendra de la charge virale et de la compétence immunitaire de l'hôte. 1, record 2, French, - prot%C3%A9ine%20du%20noyau
