T Cell	A type of lymphocyte. There are two major types of T lymphocytes: CD8 cells (cytotoxic T lymphocytes) and CD4 cells (helper T lymphocytes) both T cell types are essential for a healthy immune system. HIV infects and destroys CD4 cells, gradually destroying the immune system.

transfer-RNA	t-PHK
T-cell depletion	The gradual decrease in T-cell function that can occur with chronic infections and cancers. T-cell exhaustion weakens the immune system, making it difficult for the body to fight off infections or kill cancer-causing cells.

t-PA	tissue plasminogen activator
T-regs	regulatory T-cells	Amadey
T-tropic virus	A strain of HIV that enters and infects a host cell by binding to the CXCR4 receptor on the host cell. To enter a host cell, HIV must first attach to a CD4 receptor, then attach to either the CCR5 or CXCR4 receptor, and finally fuse its membrane with the host cell membrane. HIV is usually R5-tropic (uses CCR5) during the early stages of infection, but the virus may later switch to using either CXCR4 or both CCR5 and CXCR4.
T. J. Samson Community Hospital	TJSCH
t.d.s.	three times a day
t.i.d.	An abbreviation for "three times a day." The abbreviation is commonly used in drug dosing instructions.
trans-Goldgi-Net	tGN
tRF	tRNA-derived fragments	vlad-a­nd-slav
tachycard	tachycardia
tachycardia	Abnormal rapid heartbeat. In adults, a rate over 100 beats per minute is usually considered tachycardia. Tachycardia can occur as part of lactic acidosis, which may be caused by advanced HIV infection or some antiretroviral (ARV) drugs.
tachycard	tachycardia
tachypnea	Abnormal increased rate of breathing. Tachypnea can occur as part of lactic acidosis, which may be caused by advanced HIV infection or antiretroviral (ARV) drugs.
tACS	transcranial alternating current stimulation	frambo­ise
tactical medicine	medical specialty that involves the services and emergency medical support necessary to preserve the safety, physical and mental health, and overall well-being of military and law enforcement (SWAT) special operations (tactical) personnel and others at the scene of critical incident deployments and training	Elena_­afina
