Abstract

HIV and T. gondii infection markers were measured among 383 Intravenous Drug Users (IDU). And cytokine concentrations (IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha) were determined. The results showed IDU with HIV infection or HIV/T. gondii co-infection could disturb Th regulatory mechanism.
