Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated immune complex-mediated renal disease (HIV-ICD). Primary HIV-1 infection in patients with specific genetic susceptibilities leads to synthesis of HIV-1 proteins. HIV-1 directly infects renal cells and HIV proteins and peptides (some of which are illustrated in the diagram as examples) may stimulate local cellular immune responses. Alternatively, circulating immunoglobulins (IgG, IgM, IgA) may react with HIV-1 proteins, forming circulating immune complexes (CICs), which deposit in renal tissue. A cellular immune response, potentially influenced by host genetic factors, may lead to production of cytokines, growth factors, chemokines, and adhesion molecules. Such a response may lead to various combinations of inflammatory, sclerotic/fibrotic, and apoptotic responses [see text for details].
