Abstract
We previously showed that rhesus macaques neonatally infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) do not develop SIV encephalitis (SIVE) and maintain low brain viral loads despite having similar plasma viral loads compared to SIV-infected adults. We hypothesize that differences in myeloid cell populations that are the known target of SIV and HIV in the brain contribute to the lack of neonatal susceptibility to lentivirus-induced encephalitis. Using immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence microscopy, we examined the frontal cortices from uninfected and SIV-infected infant and adult macaques (n = 8/ea) as well as adults with SIVE (n = 4) to determine differences in myeloid cell populations. The number of CD206+ brain perivascular macrophages (PVMs) was significantly greater in uninfected infants than in uninfected adults and was markedly lower in SIV-infected infants while microglia numbers were unchanged across groups. CD206+ PVMs, which proliferate after infection in SIV-infected adults, did not undergo proliferation in infants. While virtually all CD206+ cells in adults are also CD163+, infants have a distinct CD206 single-positive population in addition to the double-positive population commonly seen in adults. Notably, we found that more than 60% of these unique CD206+CD163- PVMs in SIV-infected infants were positive for cleaved caspase-3, an indicator of apoptosis, and that nearly 100% of this subset were concomitantly positive for the necroptosis marker receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIP3). These findings show that distinct subpopulations of PVMs found in infants undergo programmed cell death instead of proliferation following SIV infection, which may lead to the absence of PVM-dependent SIVE and the limited size of the virus reservoir in the infant brain.

Abstract
In response to tissue injury or infection, the peripheral tissue macrophage induces an inflammatory response through the release of IL-1β (interleukin-1β) and TNFα (tumour necrosis factor α). These cytokines stimulate macrophages and endothelial cells to express chemokines and adhesion molecules that attract leucocytes into the peripheral site of injury or infection. The aims of the present review are to (i) discuss the relevance of brain (peri)vascular cells and compartments to bacterial meningitis, HIV-1-associated dementia, multiple sclerosis, ischaemic and traumatic brain injury, and Alzheimer's disease, and (ii) to provide an overview of the production and action of pro-inflammatory cytokines by (peri)vascular cells in these pathologies of the CNS (central nervous system). The brain (peri)vascular compartments are highly relevant to pathologies affecting the CNS, as infections are almost exclusively blood-borne. Insults disrupt blood and energy flow to neurons, and active brain-to-blood transport mechanisms, which are the bottleneck in the clearance of unwanted molecules from the brain. Perivascular macrophages are the most reactive cell type and produce IL-1β and TNFα after infection or injury to the CNS. The main cellular target for IL-1β and TNFα produced in the brain (peri)vascular compartment is the endothelium, where these cytokines induce the expression of adhesion molecules and promote leucocyte infiltration. Whether this and other effects of IL-1 and TNF in the brain (peri)vascular compartments are detrimental or beneficial in neuropathology remains to be shown and requires a clear understanding of the role of these cytokines in both damaging and repair processes in the CNS.
