Spontaneous apoptosis and highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2000
Increased programmed cell death (PCD) or apoptosis has been detected in the T cells of HIV-infected subjects; it is held partially responsible for the continuous loss of CD4+ T cells during the natural course of HIV infection.
