Selected rare, noninfectious syndromes associated with HIV infection.
Infrequent and sometimes treatable noninfectious syndromes associated with HIV disease include tenofovir-associated Fanconi syndrome, a proximal renal tubular disorder; pulmonary hypertension that appears to be due to HIV-driven inflammation resulting in endothelial proliferation; thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, characterized by intravascular coagulopathy; diffuse infiltrative lymphocytosi...
متن کاملHIV-associated lipodystrophy: a review of underlying mechanisms and therapeutic options.
Lipodystrophy (LD) is a common adverse effect of HIV treatment with highly active antiretroviral therapy, which comprises morphological and metabolic changes. The underlying mechanisms for LD are thought to be due to mitochondrial toxicity and insulin resistance, which results from derangements in levels of adipose tissue-derived proteins (adipocytokines) that are actively involved in energy ho...
متن کاملMechanisms underlying abnormalities of immune activation/coagulation in HIV infection
Immune activation has been recognized as an important component of the pathogenesis of HIV infection since the first recognition of cases of AIDS in the early 1980s. Early in the AIDS epidemic, patients with HIV infection were noted to have elevated levels of serum immunoglobulins. CD38 expression on CD4+ T cells was shown to be an independent predictor of survival in 1999. The characterization...
متن کاملMechanisms underlying HIV-1 Vpu-mediated viral egress
Viruses such as lentiviruses that are responsible for long lasting infections have to evade several levels of cellular immune mechanisms to persist and efficiently disseminate in the host. Over the past decades, much evidence has emerged regarding the major role of accessory proteins of primate lentiviruses, human immunodeficiency virus and simian immunodeficiency virus, in viral evasion from t...
متن کاملMechanisms Underlying Dysregulation of Electrolyte Absorption in Inflammatory Bowel Disease-Associated Diarrhea.
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic relapsing inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. Chronic inflammation of the intestine affects the normal fluid and electrolyte absorption leading to diarrhea, the hallmark symptom of IBD. The management of IBD-associated diarrhea still remains to be a challenge, and extensive studie...
