Area of Science:

Neurology
Infectious Diseases
Biomarker Discovery

Background:

HIV infection frequently leads to neurological complications (HIV/neuroAIDS), affecting cognition and motor skills.
Current diagnostic methods rely on descriptive assessments, lacking sensitivity for disease monitoring and treatment response.
The aging HIV population increases vulnerability to neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting the need for objective markers.

Purpose of the Study:

To review current knowledge on biomarker discovery for HIV/neuroAIDS.
To emphasize the limitations of current diagnostic methods and the need for objective measures.
To explore the potential of various biomarker classes in understanding HIV-associated neurologic injury.

Main Methods:

Review of existing literature on HIV/neuroAIDS biomarkers.
Focus on cerebrospinal fluid, blood, and neuroimaging biomarkers.
Analysis of the role of biomarkers in diagnosis, progression, and treatment response.

Main Results:

Biomarkers offer quantitative and objective measures compared to clinical assessments.
Biomarkers can help elucidate the impact of comorbidities on HIV/neuroAIDS.
Three main classes of biomarkers are under investigation: CSF, blood, and neuroimaging.

Conclusions:

Reliable biomarkers are essential for precise diagnosis and management of HIV/neuroAIDS.
Biomarker research is critical for an aging HIV population at risk for neurodegeneration.
Continued efforts in biomarker discovery will improve patient outcomes and disease understanding.
