Immunohistochemical expression of cyclin T1 in a case of AIDS-related cachexia

In Vivo. 2001 Sep-Oct;15(5):391-5.

Abstract

The expression of cyclin T1 in an autoptic case of AIDS-related cachexia was investigated by immunohistochemistry. When contrasted with normal human tissues, a very similar pattern of expression was found. However, a peculiar distribution of cyclin T1 was noticed in the brown fat and in lymph nodes affected by AIDS-associated lymphadenopathy.
