NO has complex roles in immunological host responses against viruses, and especially against HIV-1 infection. In HIV-1 infection, NO cannot be rigidly classified as an anti-inflammatory or proinflammatory molecule, but it can be deemed a true inflammatory mediator. Many studies support a proviral effect of NO in HIV-1 infection, mainly based on stimulation of viral replication, and on toxic effects on various cells, including central nervous system cells, via oxidative injury that may cause cellular and organ dysfunction, and immunosuppression and immunopathology, especially in the central nervous system.

Alternatively, endothelial cells and astrocytes (which compose the blood-brain banier) are infected directly (Strelow et al., 2001). A valiant of this theory is that infectious virions are transported in the cytoplasm of astrocytes and endothelial cells, and eventually transfeired to central nervous system cells by trans-cytosis or macropynocytosis) (Marechal et al., 2001).

Studies on brain development during malnutrition have continued to demonstrate the vulnerability of the developing brain to nutritional insult. Winick (1968) has emphasized that nutritional deficiency occurring while cells of the central nervous system are actively dividing results in a permanent decrease in central nervous system cell number. Later nutritional deficiency which results in decrease in cell size appears to be recoverable. Perhaps even more important than effects of malnutrition on brain cell number is the effect on brain protein synthesis and rayelination.
