What happens during the disease - hiv disease resulting in (persistent) generalized lymphadenopathy
Hiv disease resulting in persistent generalized lymphadenopathy is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (hiv). the virus infects and destroys cd4+ t cells, which are a type of white blood cell responsible for coordinating the body's immune response. as the virus multiplies and destroys these cells, the body is unable to mount an effective immune response to fight off other infections, leading to a state of immunodeficiency. this weakened immune system leads to an increase in lymph nodes throughout the body, resulting in persistent generalized lymphadenopathy.
