Difference between Blood–brain barrier and HIV/AIDS

Blood–brain barrier vs. HIV/AIDS

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective semipermeable membrane barrier that separates the circulating blood from the brain and extracellular fluid in the central nervous system (CNS). Human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a spectrum of conditions caused by infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Similarities between Blood–brain barrier and HIV/AIDS

Blood–brain barrier and HIV/AIDS have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antibody, Bacteria, HIV, HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder, Immune system, Infection, Macrophage, Syphilis, Toxoplasmosis.

Antibody

An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.
