  • (15) As TNF can increase the production of IL-1 and IL-6 and these inflammatory cytokines all enhance HIV-1 gene expression and affect the immune, vascular, and central nervous systems, the activation of TNF by Tat may be part of a complex pathway in which HIV-1 uses viral products and host factors to increase its own expression and infectivity and to induce disease.

Taw


Definition:

  • (n.) Tow.
  • (v. t.) To push; to tug; to tow.
  • (v. t.) To prepare or dress, as hemp, by beating; to tew; hence, to beat; to scourge.
