An Autoimmune Mechanism for AIDS' T4 Lymphopenia

We put forward a new model for the T4 lymphopenia occuring in AIDS by suggesting a mechanism whose net effect is blocking the generation of T4 cells during HIV infection. Supporting evidence for this mechanism is derived from the experiments in the recent literature.
