ABSTRACT
Abstract In HIV-patients, the imbalance in immunological, hematological and biochemical factors can contribute to the progression to AIDS and non-AIDS comorbidities, even during combined antiretroviral therapy (cART). In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to analyze some of these parameters in 138 different asymptomatic HIV-infected patients, doing multiple comparisons between the groups, which are dichotomized in the presence / absence of cART and type of immune response (immunological responders [iR,>500cells/mL] or non-responders [iNR,<500cells/ mL]). Were analyzed cytokines and other routine laboratory parameters. Our results showed high creatine phosphokinase and low IL-10 levels in cART-patients. They also presented metabolic alterations, including elevations in total cholesterol and triglycerides, particularly in those iNR. In ART-iR an increased alanine aminotransferase was observed. Those NAÏVE-iNR presented high LDL-cholesterol, C-reactive protein and lactate dehydrogenase values. The long-term non-progressors (LTNP) showed the best laboratory results. In conclusion, many blood parameters were changed in HIV-patients, especially in those under cART. To identify LTNP individuals could be important to discussions their early therapeutic onset.
