We measured levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1) in paired serum and CSF samples of 110 HIV-1-positive patients with and without neurological symptoms and 40 HIV-negative non-immune neurological controls, and in sera of 26 asymptomatic HIV-1-positive patients. Serum sICAM-1 levels in asymptomatic HIV-1-positive patients were significantly increased in comparison to HIV-negative controls. Moreover, they were significantly higher in HIV-1-positive patients with AIDS-defining diseases than in the asymptomatic HIV-1-positive group. In subgroups of patients with neurological disease, the highest serum values were found in HIV encephalopathy. CSF levels of sICAM-1 were elevated only in HIV-1-positive patients with neurological disease mainly due to passive diffusion through a defective blood-brain barrier. An sICAM-1 index was calculated as a measure for intrathecal production of sICAM-1 but showed no significant differences between patients with and without neurological involvement. However, increased levels of the sICAM-1 index were found in some patients with opportunistic CNS infection of bacterial or fungal origin. Serum and CSF levels of sICAM-1 correlated with neopterin levels, a marker of interferon-gamma-mediated macrophage activation and CSF sICAM-1 levels were inversely correlated to numbers of CD4+ T cells. Elevated serum sICAM-1 levels already in asymptomatic HIV-1-positive individuals add to the evidence for an early immune activation in HIV infection. With the further increase of serum and CSF s-ICAM-1 in patients with AIDS-defining diseases sICAM-1 could serve as a new surrogate marker similar to neopterin.

Pathologic examination of the brain reveals white matter rarefaction, perivascular infiltrates of lymphocytes, foamy macrophages, and multinucleated giant cells.
