Improved understanding of the pattern of white matter changes in early and prodromal Alzheimer's disease (AD) states such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is necessary to support earlier preclinical detection of AD, and debate remains whether white matter changes in MCI are secondary to gray matter changes. We applied neuropsychologically based MCI criteria to a sample of normally aging older adults; 32 participants met criteria for MCI and 81 participants were classified as normal control (NC) subjects. Whole-head high resolution T1 and diffusion tensor imaging scans were completed. Tract-Based Spatial Statistics was applied and a priori selected regions of interest were extracted. Hippocampal volume and cortical thickness averaged across regions with known vulnerability to AD were derived. Controlling for cortical thickness, the MCI group showed decreased average fractional anisotropy (FA) and decreased FA in parietal white matter and in white matter underlying the entorhinal and posterior cingulate cortices relative to the NC group. Statistically controlling for cortical thickness, medial temporal FA was related to memory and parietal FA was related to executive functioning. These results provide further support for the potential role of white matter integrity as an early biomarker for individuals at risk for AD and highlight that changes in white matter may be independent of gray matter changes.

Summary
HIV-1 infection leads to profound immune dysfunction, resulting in the clinical manifestations of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The damage that HIV-1 does to the immune system results from the direct, harmful effects that occur when HIV-1 infects a cell, the effects that virions and parts of virions have on cells that do not become infected, and the chronic cell activation that results from infection and the host's response to infection. Abnormal function of HIV-1-affected cells can then lead to dysfunction of other cell types, since the immune system is a highly interconnected system. The main target cells of HIV-1 include cells that are critical in the immune control of the virus, impairing the ability of the host to mount an effective immune response.
Immunopathogenesis
Primary infection
The majority of adult and adolescent HIV-1 infections are the result of exposure of HIV-1 to mucosal surfaces. This is likely true also for mother-to-child transmission that occurs peripartum and during breastfeeding. Studies of macaques inoculated intravaginally with simian immunodeficiency virus, an animal model for HIV-1, demonstrate the events of primary infection [1]. Dendritic cells, resident in the mucosa, transport HIV-1 to regional lymph nodes within 48 hours of exposure. Within the lymph node, CD4+ T cells become infected through interactions with dendritic cell-associated HIV-1. Subsequently, large numbers of new virions are produced, and infected T cells and free virus can be found in the peripheral blood and in lymph tissue throughout the body approximately 4–11 days after infection.
