Problem:
As far as I know and could understand from reading about HIV, T helper cell is one of the main reasons to develop AIDS in patients infected with HIV virus, that because the absence of helper T cell suppresses the immune system because no T cell cytokines released to allow other white blood cells to attack or release antigens.
Required:
Question 1: Did I understand it correctly? Please provide your suggestion.
Question 2: Now if my understanding is correct, why don't scientists find a way to produce T cell cytokines in the lab? and then inject it to patients with HIV?Please explain in detail.
Question 3: Wouldn't that in theory revive the immune system and perhaps heal them or at least make them live longer?
