Abstract

Although rates of severe HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders have declined in the post-antiretroviral treatment (ART) era, subtle deficits persist, possibly exacerbated by treatment non-adherence. The actual effects of ART interruption/initiation on brain glucose metabolism as a reflection of viral replication and neuroinflammation remain unclear. Our study investigates how treatment initiation and interruption alter brain glucose metabolism in SIV-infected macaques, using 18F-FDG PET in correlation with plasma and CSF viral loads (VL) and cytokine levels. SIV-infected macaques (n = 7) underwent ART initiation only, ART interruption only, or both. Five uninfected animals served as controls. 18F-FDG PET imaging was performed at baseline and 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment modification. Mean and maximum standardized uptake values (SUV) for the whole-brain and subregions were calculated. Plasma and CSF VL and cytokine levels were measured. Paired t tests evaluated acute changes in whole-brain SUV from baseline to 1 month, while mixed-effect linear regression models evaluated changes over multiple timepoints and correlated SUV values with disease markers. ART interruption was associated with increased SUVmean and SUVmax acut...Continue Reading
