the
propensity of infected lymphocytes to form short-lived syncytia or from an increased susceptibility of the cells to death. There is also evidence that as AIDS progresses cytokine dysregulation occurs, and the overproduction of type-2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-10) increases susceptibility to AICD whereas type-1 cytokines (IL-12, IFN-γ) may be protective. Clearly there are multiple causes of CD4+ T lymphocyte apoptosis in AIDS and therapies that block or
