Mechanisms by which HIV causes susceptibility to respiratory pathogens remain incompletely understood. We obtained whole blood and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) from people with latent TB infection in the presence or absence of antiretroviral-naive HIV co-infection. Transcriptomic and flow cytometric analyses demonstrated HIV-associated cell proliferation plus type I interferon activity in blood and effector memory CD8 T-cells in BAL. Both compartments displayed reduced induction of CD8 T-cell-derived IL-17A in people with HIV, associated with elevated T-cell regulatory molecule expression. The data suggest that dysfunctional CD8 T-cell responses in uncontrolled HIV contribute to susceptibility to secondary bacterial infections, including tuberculosis.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
