Dysregulated Tim-3 expression on natural killer cells is associated with increased Galectin-9 levels in HIV-1 infection.

Cell surface density of Tim-3 on NK cells, as measured by the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI), trended to be lower in HIV-1 infection compared to HIV-1-negative controls, however the difference did not reach statistical significance (HIV-1-infected subjects: median, 497; IQR, 387–622; healthy controls: median, 600; IQR, 457.3-805.5; p = 0.1).
