Plasma levels of sTNFR p75 and IL-8 in patients with HIV-1 infection.

abstract：:Mice lacking suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) accumulate CD8(+) T lymphocytes in the thymus and in the periphery. Whereas IL-7 and IL-15 promote the generation of CD8 single positive (SP) thymocytes, IL-15 drives the expansion of CD8 T cells in the periphery. Here, we investigated whether increased productio...
