Abstract:
Patients with allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) have a high risk of invasive fungal infections (IFIs) even after neutrophil regeneration. Immunological aspects might play a very important role in the IFI development in these patients. Some data are available supporting the identification of high-risk patients with IFI for example patients receiving stem cells from TLR4 haplotype S4 positive donors. Key defense mechanisms against IFI include the activation of neutrophils, the phagocytosis of germinating conidia by dendritic cells, and the fight of the cells of the innate immunity such as monocytes and natural killer cells against germlings and hyphae. Furthermore, immunosuppressive drugs interact with immune effector cells influencing the specific fungal immune defense and antimycotic drugs might interact with immune response. Based on the current knowledge on immunological mechanism inAspergillus fumigatus, the first approaches of an immunotherapy using human T cells are in development. This might be an option for the future of aspergillosis patients having a poor prognosis with conventional treatment.

Abstract:
Leprosy and human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 infection are prevalent in Brazil. Coinfection by Mycobacterium leprae and HTLV-1 is reviewed and a case is reported. A 59 year-old woman was followed and HTLV-1 associated myelopathy was diagnosed during leprosy treatment. The clinical and neurological aspects of this unusual association were initially reviewed. Immunological markers and the possible prognoses due to the association of the diseases were discussed. The unexpected association of leprosy and HTLV-1 associated myelopathy may occur in endemic areas and causes difficulties in determining the correct diagnosis and adequate management of the neurological manifestations.

Abstract:
Cyclospora cayetanensis causes watery diarrhea in tropical countries, among travelers and after ingestion of contaminated water and food. Very little is known about its epidemiology, pathogenic aspects and reservoirs. In Brazil, its prevalence is unknown and to date there have been reports of three outbreaks. We report here a retrospective study of 5,015 stool samples from 4,869 patients attended at Clinical Hospital of the University of São Paulo Medical School, SP, Brazil between April 1996 and January 2002, with 14 cases of Cyclospora cayetanensis being detected there was a prevalence of 0.3%. Of the 14 infected patients, the mean age was 38 years and 71.4% were female. Ten patients presented symptoms; six presented levels of immunological markers and five patients were immunodeficient.

Abstract:
Considering a stage of the pathological process patients (boys at the age of 8-12 years) were divided into two (2) groups. Group I included 14 patients with the fragmentation stage (Perthes disease Stage II). Group 2 included 15 children with Perthes disease Stage III (the stage of re-ossification). Perthes disease regardless of the stage of the disease was characterized by the increase in oxygen-dependent and lysosomal phagocytic activity of neutrophils, the increase in the number of early extracellular traps, as well as by increased concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and TNFa), IgE, decreased concentrations of IL-18. The fragmentation stage was characterized by moderate activation of cellular immunity with a prevailing increase in the number of T-lymphocytes with early activation markers (CD25). At the re-ossification stage the predominance of T-lymphocytes was observed with late activation markers (HLADR), being accompanied by moderate activation of humoral immunity (increased concentrations of class A and G serum immunoglobulins). The obtained data can be used as additional criteria for clarifying Perthes disease stage, predicting osteonecrosis development when making decision of the feasibility of performing reconstructive surgeries on the joint.

Abstract:
Some parasites may modify the behavior of their hosts. Altered behaviors may: 1) benefit the host in that they defend against the pathogen, 2) benefit the pathogen and represent manipulations of the host response, and 3) benefit neither the host or the pathogen and simply be a product of the host response to infection. In this thesis I examine four host/parasite systems. For each system, I explore host/parasite behavioral interactions, and examine them with regard to selective pressures that may be acting on both the host and the parasite. I test the Hamilton and Zuk hypothese in 26 species of lizards. I find an inverse relationship between a lizard species' brightness and parasite prevalence. My result lend credence to criticisms of the Hamilton and Zuk Hypothesis. If infection does occur, animals may alter their behavior to impair the growth and reproduction of the parasite. To test this prediction, I examine behavioral thermoregulation in two strains of the snail Biomphalaria glabrata, one resistant to, and one susceptible to, the parasite Schistosoma mansoni. The preferred temperature of infected snails drops five weeks after exposure to the parasite. I propose the hypothesis that pathogen-induced host defense responses result in altered host behaviors and enhanced predation. In particular, I examine the effects of the acute phase response (a physiological response whose symptoms include fever, reduced activity and malaise) on antipredatory behavior in bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) tadpoles. This host response is associated with the preliminary stages of infection with many pathogens yet its behavioral effects have received little attention. I find that the stereotypical effects of the acute phase response can lead to increased predation. I suggest that altered behaviors may afford some parasites a potential pathway to their next host. I examine the behavioral effects of a yeast, Candida spp., a single-host parasite species in its natural host, the red-legged frog (Rana aurora). Infected tadpoles exhibit the same behavioral modifications that are noted in bacteria injected bullfrog tadpoles. These results suggest that some altered behaviors may occur due to a host response to infection and not due to parasitic manipulation.
