    Abstract:

    The comorbidity of drug abuse and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has attracted much attention. Drug abuse is a promoter of HIV transmission. It also aggravates the viral load in the central nervous system and accelerates the progression of HIV?associated neurocognitive disorders. This article focuses on the commonly used animal models related to HIV infection, such as non?human primates, rodents, and felines, analyzes their limitations and advantages, and summarizes the latest research progress of animal models related to HIV infection in drug abuse.
