Social stress results in altered glucocorticoid regulation and shorter survival in simian acquired immune deficiency syndrome

Capitanio, John P., Mendoza, Sally P., Lerche, Nicholas W., Mason, William A.

From early in the AIDS epidemic, psychosocial stressors have been proposed as contributors to the variation in disease course. To test this hypothesis, rhesus macaques were assigned to stable or...

Enhanced Replication of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus Adjacent to Catecholaminergic Varicosities in Primate Lymph Nodes

Sloan, Erica K., Tarara, Ross P., Capitanio, John P., Cole, Steve W.

Clinical and in vitro studies have shown that activity of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) can stimulate lentivirus replication. To define the potential anatomical basis for this effect, we...
