Popis: Background Although the host gene expression in the context of HIV has been explored by several studies, it remains unclear how HIV is able to manipulate and subvert host gene machinery before and after highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in the same individual. In order to define the underlying pharmaco-genomic basis of HIV control during HAART and genomic basis of immune deterioration prior to HAART initiation, we performed a genome-wide expression analysis using primary peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) derived from 14 HIV + subjects pre-highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) (time point-1 or TP1) with detectable plasma viremia and post-HAART (time point-2 or TP2) with effective control of plasma viremia (
