We have examined 26 human AIDS brains obtained at post mortem for infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), and for dual infection of cells by both viruses. The techniques used were enzyme-linked immunocytochemistry for HCMV and in situ hybridisation using a cDNA probe for HIV. Using these techniques, HCMV infection was detected in 14 brains, HIV infection in 14 brains, and coinfection with HIV and HCMV in 7 brains. Four case of dual HIV/HCMV infection were found where no colocalisation could be detected. In randomly chosen dually infected areas 19.2% of infected cells were coinfected with both viruses. Although cells identified morphologically as macrophages were the most common infected cell type, astrocytes and neurons were both singly and doubly infected with HIV and HCMV. Complete clinical data were available for 4 of the 7 cases with coinfection and each had AIDS dementia complex.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D003586 Cytomegalovirus Infections Infection with CYTOMEGALOVIRUS, characterized by enlarged cells bearing intranuclear inclusions. Infection may be in almost any organ, but the salivary glands are the most common site in children, as are the lungs in adults.

D006678 HIV Human immunodeficiency virus. A non-taxonomic and historical term referring to any of two species, specifically HIV-1 and/or HIV-2. Prior to 1986, this was called human T-lymphotropic virus type III/lymphadenopathy-associated virus (HTLV-III/LAV). From 1986-1990, it was an official species called HIV. Since 1991, HIV was no longer considered an official species name; the two species were designated HIV-1 and HIV-2.
