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

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.
