 The Influence of Air Pollution on Lung Health among People Living with HIV
REFNo: HS2658ES

To identify potentially targetable mechanisms by which air pollution exposure may influence lung inflammation in people with and without HIV. I will collect bronchoalveolar lavage specimens in 45 PLWH and 45 HIV-uninfected participants and use Multiplex assays to compare inflammatory profiles associated with higher as compared to lower air pollution exposure levels. Hypothesis: HIV infection and air pollution synergistically induce a pro-inflammatory cytokine profile in the lungs of PLWH. ,
