These authors, albeit in a smaller cohort of cART-treated patients (n=80) than that described in the current study, reported that circulating levels of sCD40L, but not sCD62P, were significantly elevated relative to those of a matched, control group of HIV-negative participants (n=80), and were associated with the presence of hypertension (53). The gene discussed is CD40LG; the disease is Hypertension.
