Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection results in the progressive impairment of immune response leading to the development of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Among the mechanisms contributing to this progression, oxidative stress induced by the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during activation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and macrophages may play a critical role. 1.
