HIV infects only the CD4 cells of the immune system, and it destroys lymphocytes.
The cells that fight disease are known as T-cells. These are also the cells that HIV first uses as a host.
HIV attacks cells associated with immune function, specifically CD4 T cells and macrophages.
A type of white blood cells called T-lymphocytes or T-cells for short.
Helper T-Cells and Phgocytes.
HIV does not attack brain cells. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) attacks cells in the body that fight infection and are involved with immune function. Confusion and memory loss could result from medications that are taken to treat HIV, or possibly infections resulting from the weakened immune systems of those infected with HIV.
HIV mainly attacks cells in the immune system. I'm not aware of a major impact on skin (epidermal) cells.
No, it attacks the T-Helper cells which are critical in establishing and maximizing the capabilities of the immune system. This is why your immune system becomes weaker when you have contracted HIV/AIDS.
It attacks the white blood cells.
HIV
One of the primary pathogens that destroy T-cells in the body is the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It can leads lead to AIDS.
HIV attacks Acquired Immune system.
the CD4(T-cell)lymphocytes is affected by HIV and aids
White Blood Cells
TRUE
AIDs, or Auto-Immune Deficiency virus corrupts the immune system, causing it to attack itself, which slowly but surely open the body to infections. AIDs in itself will not kill the person, but the many diseases which are free to enter your body after your immune system is destroyed by itself.
