The CD stands for 'cluster of differentiation' and is way to categorise some of the cells that are part of your immune system. CD4 is T-cell and is the most important immune marker for monitoring HIV.
CD4 cells are T helper cells that help fight infection. Yes, lupus can cause a drop in your CD4 count.
Full form of CD is cluster of designation or cluster of differentiation.
The CD4 count is an indication of how healthy the immune system is. The lower your CD4 count, the less cells there are available to fight infection. This would indicate that the person's immune system is not functioning optimally.
Your CD4 count is a marker of the strength of your immune system. Many immune related diseases can cause your CD4 count to drop, as can medications that are designed to suppress your immune system. With HIV, the CD4 count falls because it is unable to keep up with the pressure from the virus replicating.

CD4 cells refer to a broader category of immune cells characterized by the presence of the CD4 glycoprotein on their surface, which includes various subtypes. CD4+ T cells, specifically, are a subset of CD4 cells primarily involved in orchestrating the immune response by activating other immune cells. Essentially, while all CD4+ T cells are CD4 cells, not all CD4 cells are necessarily T cells, as the term can include other immune cell types as well.
HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, primarily targets and destroys CD4 T-cells, which are a type of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the immune system. This depletion of CD4 T-cells weakens the immune system, making the body more vulnerable to infections and diseases.
it mean there is no CD so make sure there is a CD in there
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is the virus that causes AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.) HIV attacks cells (cd4 included) in the body that fight disease. HIV+ patients are given an AIDS diagnosis when they have reached a low level of these cells as a result of their HIV infection.
A lavender-top tube is typically used for CD4 cell count testing.
coz CD8 and CD4 are two diffrent types of proteins .. n HIV requires cd4 to fuse for replicatin
