Abstract
CD4C/HIVNef Tg mice express HIV-1 Nef in relevant target cells through the regulatory sequences of the human CD4 gene. These mice develop a severe disease showing many characteristics of human AIDS. A summary of the results obtained with these Tg mice is presented.

Lymphomas in people living with HIV (PLWH)
In the era of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), the incidence of lymphoma among people living with HIV (PLWH) surpassed Kaposi's sarcoma in 2011, becoming the most common AIDS-defining malignancy. The annual incidence rate ranges approximately from 100 to 300 per 100,000 individuals with HIV infection as the population denominator, which ...read more
