Although the biological importance of oxidative stress on events involved in AIDS neuropathogenesis and the HIV-1 proteins responsible for oxidative stress remain to be elucidated, our results point to the activation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) upon HIV-1 infection and its elevation in brain cells of AIDS patients with dementia.
Low body-oxygen levels are known to suppress immunity, increase inflammation, and lead to opportunistic infection, as well as a medical fact. Therefore, it makes sense to assume that increasing body-oxygen levels will help reduce the HIV/AIDS virus-related effects.

What is the Bohr effect? The Bohr effect is a way to explain the cell’s oxygen release. Red blood cells don’t load oxygen into tissues. Carbon dioxide (CO2) plays a key role in O2 transport due vasodilation. Christian Bohr, a Danish physiologist and father of Niels Bohr, first described the Bohr law in 1904. Bohr …
