In general our findings indicate that monocytes and CSF from the Hispanic cohort with HIV-associated cognitive impairment demonstrate a parallel decline in antioxidant enzyme function independent of the antiretroviral therapy. One question remains unanswered: Is decreased enzyme activity a protective mechanism of innate immunity or a negative
