MODELING PRO-INFLAMMATORY CROSSTALK BETWEEN MICROGLIA AND ASTROCYTES DURING HIV INFECTION
… stem cell (iPSC) based model of microglia (iMg) that reliably express key markers of microglia lineage and are transcriptomically similar to ex vivo microglia. We have shown that our iMg also support productive HIV infection, though at a reduced level compared to macrophages. Additionally, …
