It is suggested that etiology, pathogenesis and clinical pattern of HIV-infection advanced stages (AIDS) may be closely associated with acute accidental involution of the thymus and activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in 10-35-year-olds. Feasibility of preventing the disease progression in HIV-infected individuals by stimulation of microcirculation in the thymic cortex needs further investigations.
