The Effect of Antiretroviral Therapy on IL-6, IL-1 β, TNF-α, IFN-γ Levels and their Relationship with HIV-RNA and CD4+ T Cells in HIV Patients.

CONCLUSIONS: Althugh serum concentrations of IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-a showed significant decrease after ART, they were still significantly higher than the controls. IFN-γ responded differently to ART compared to the other cytokines, indicating that it may play a distinct and important role in the pathogenesis of HIV infection.
