Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecules and Tumor Necrosis Factor-a Receptor-II in HIV-Related Neuropathy and Neurodegeneration

Explore the intricate relationship between vascular cell adhesion molecules, tumor necrosis factor-α receptor-II, and distal sensory polyneuropathy in aging individuals with HIV through this informative seminar. Delve into two compelling presentations: the first by Dr. Mohammadsobhan Andalibi from UCSD, focusing on the association between specific molecular markers and neuropathy in HIV patients, and the second by Dr. Azin Tavasoli, also from UCSD, examining the correlation between increasing neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in people with HIV. Gain valuable insights from this 42-minute Joint NIMH Center Seminar Series session, presented by Johns Hopkins Medicine on December 6, 2023, which sheds light on crucial aspects of HIV-related neurological complications and their potential molecular underpinnings.
