Badley A.D. (ed.). Cell Death During HIV Infection. Taylor & Francis,2006. — 511 p.. 2006

Establishing that the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is the etiologic agent of acquired immu­nodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) was the beginning of a revolution in science. Since then, the advances made in retrovirology have led to major advances in therapy for HIV, which, in turn, have allowed thousands worldwide to live longer lives. The advances in immunologic sciences have been rapid as well, and within a few short years, those advances will likely translate into immune-based therapies for use in clinical practice. In comparison, the study of apoptosis dysregulation during HIV-induced immunodeficiency has been less intense. Nevertheless, important lessons have been learned. Most scientists and clinicians now accept that cell death is not a passive process but, rather, a tightly coordinated and regulated one. As such, apoptotic cell death may be amenable to therapeutic intervention. In non-HIV disease states, clinical trials of apoptosis modifying agents used for HIV disease are already underway.
