HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) are prevalent in aging individuals with HIV, despite effective treatment.
Oxidative stress from reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a key role in the pathogenesis of HAND.
Current therapies targeting HAND include antioxidant strategies and PARP inhibitors to reduce neuroinflammation.
Understanding these mechanisms may lead to better therapeutic interventions for HIV-related neurodegeneration.
