Once HIV succeeds in getting into the human body, it immediately searches for the T-cells. The AIDS virus, like a wolf disguised in sheep skin, attaches itself to the T-cell which mistakes it for something familiar.
It then fuses its surrounding membrane with that of the host cell.
Once the virus is in the T-cell, the viral DNA will enter the T-cell's nucleus and become part of its genetic composition. The T-cell is now unable to recognize foreign substances.
The cell begins to reproduce the altered DNA, it actually becomes a factory for procreating its own foe. However, HIV is able to reproduce itself a thousand times faster than any other virus.
Once the cell is overused, the viruses EXPLODES out of it, ready to attack other T-cells. Ironically the cells which are supposed to fight infection against the body are the very ones which destroy it.
The HIV virus infects a variety of white blood cells (macrophages, dendritic cells and so-called T-helper cells) that have a certain protein on their exterior. In doing so, the virus prevents these cells from initiating an immune response to infections, thus allowing HIV infected cells to avoid detection and removal.
The HIV virus attacks the T cells of the immune system, which are the cells that trigger an immune response to a foreign body.
HIV attacks the cells in the immune system, and prevents the immune systemfrom attacking invading infections in the body.

What is human immunodefiency virus HIV?
HIV virus attack to ammune system
What types of cells does the HIV virus primarily attack in humans?
the CD4(T-cell)lymphocytes is affected by HIV and aids
What virus attacks the cells in the immune system that produce antibodies-?
Not sure if it's a disease or virus (I'm tired), it's HIV and gives you AIDS. AIDS attack the T Cells that produce antibodies, which makes you vulnerable to sickness. You can get it from (no offense) gay s*x (for the children) and by injecting drugs into yourself I think. There may be another way, but I don't remember.
What cell does Aids attack?
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) does not infect any cells of the body. AIDS is a diagnosis given to HIV+ patients when the exhibit certain clinical criteria. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is the virus that causes AIDS. HIV attacks the part of the body that fights disease, the cells associate with immune function. Over time, as HIV infection progresses, an HIV+ person is less able to fight disease.
What cells are most likely to be attacked by HIV?
helper tHuman Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) attacks the CD4+T cells, which are basically your immune system. which prevent you from infectionsHIV or Human immunodeficiency virus does not really attack anything but aids which is the disease it leads to does. Aids attacks the immune system which causes major problems for your body. People who are HIV positive may carry the disease for years before noticing anything.
Can HIV cells be found in plants?
HIV cells are not found in plants. Forms of the HIV virus only exist in Primates and Felines.
How is a hiv virus different from a cold virus?
HIV attacks helper T cells that are trying to fight infection, rather than attacking healthy body cells like a cold virus does. HIV attacks lymphocytes directly.
What type of virus infects t cells?
HIV The human immunodeficiency virus is a lentivirus that causes HIV infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
Why are other cells not targeted by the HIV virus?
HIV can only bind with the CD4 located on Helper T cells.
What virus attacks the cells in the immune system that produce antibodies?
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) attacks the T cells, which are a type of immune cell that plays a crucial role in coordinating the immune response, including the production of antibodies. By destroying these cells, HIV weakens the immune system's ability to fight infections effectively.
Explain how the HIV affect the body Specifically which white blood cell?
When HIV virus entered in the body of mainly first to be aware with that particular body so that soon enough they go and attack the white blood cells which known as CD4 which are responsible for the protection of the body against diseases and infection so when HIV virus data When HIV virus entered in the body of mainly first to be aware with that particular body so that soon enough they go and attack the white blood cells which known as CD4 which are responsible for the protection of the body against diseases and infection so when HIV virus attack them at last the body remains with few CD4 that course welcoming of other different diseases and infection
When does HIV destroy brain cells causing confusion and memory loss?
HIV does not attack brain cells. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) attacks cells in the body that fight infection and are involved with immune function. Confusion and memory loss could result from medications that are taken to treat HIV, or possibly infections resulting from the weakened immune systems of those infected with HIV.
