When HIV Patients Waver On Meds
Mon, 06 Feb 2012 08:00:00 +0100 | Health News from Medical News Today
According to a new analysis of hundreds of recorded office visits, doctors and nurse practitioners typically issued orders and asked closed or leading questions when talking to their HIV-positive patients about adherence to antiretroviral therapy. Attempts at problem-solving with patients who had lapsed occurred in less than a quarter of visits. Take your medicine, Doctor's orders. It's a simple idea that may seem especially obvious when the ----- are the antiretroviral (ARV) drugs that add decades to the lives of HIV-positive patients...

Enhanced levels of CCL19 in patients with advanced acquired immune deficiency syndrome (----).
Sun, 05 Feb 2012 16:25:26 +0100 | Clinical and Developmental Immunology
Authors: Damås JK, Oktedalen O, Ueland T, Landrø L, Barstad J, Müller F, Frøland SS, Flo TH, Aukrust P Abstract Based on the ability to recruit lymphocytes and dendritic cells to lymphoid tissue and to promote inflammation, we hypothesized a role for dysregulated CCL19 and CCL21 levels in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with advanced immunodeficiency, and in particular in those with accompanying Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection. The hypothesis was explored by studies in HIV-infected patients with and without MAC infection, as well as in vitro, examining the ability of proteins from MAC to promote CCL19 and CCL21 responses in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) during highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART). Our main findings were: (i)...

Direct and efficient cellular transformation of primary rat mesenchymal precursor cells by KSHV
Fri, 03 Feb 2012 18:50:49 +0100 | Journal of Clinical Investigation
Infections by viruses are associated with approximately 12% of human cancer. Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is causally linked to several malignancies commonly found in ---- patients. The mechanism of KSHV-induced oncogenesis remains elusive, due in part to the lack of an adequate experimental system for cellular transformation of primary cells. Here, we report efficient infection and cellular transformation of primary rat embryonic metanephric mesenchymal precursor cells (MM cells) by KSHV. Cellular transformation occurred at as early as day 4 after infection and in nearly all infected cells. Transformed cells expressed hallmark vascular endothelial, lymphatic endothelial, and mesenchymal markers and efficiently induced tumors in nude mice. KSHV established latent ...

Fighting malaria with one hand tied back
Fri, 03 Feb 2012 06:29:00 +0100 | Guardian Unlimited Science
Malaria does not just kill babies and children under five – it kills adults too, in nearly as large proportionsDecades of assumptions about the lethality of malaria have been overturned by the publication of a paper in the Lancet from an academic institute in Seattle which says the disease kills twice as many as everybody thought. Even more extraordinary – it would seem that conventional wisdom about the disease has been wrong all this time.It does not just kill babies and children under five — it kills adults too, in nearly as large proportions.The Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation has astounded the global health community by claiming it has been fighting malaria apparently with one hand behind its back. The death toll has come down since 2004, thanks to huge efforts to get...
