Three-dimensional structure of HIV infected (green) and uninfected (pink, purple) T cells interacting. One cell (pink) has wrapped an extension around its uninfected neighbour (purple) to reach an infected cell (bright green). Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a chronic, potentially life-threatening condition caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). By damaging your immune system, HIV interferes with your body's ability to fight the organisms that cause disease. Data from focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM).
