Abstract:
HHV-8, the aetiological agent of Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS), multicentric Castleman’s disease (MCD) and primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) has been characterised in several parts of the world but largely overlooked in Australia, perhaps because highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has drastically reduced the incidence of HHV-8-associated diseases in the most at-risk population, namely those with HIV disease. Previously, Australian researchers have looked briefly at the sexual behaviours associated with risk of transmission of HHV-8, at molecular methods for detecting the presence of this virus

Abstract:
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), a gamma-herpesvirus with a particularly high seroprevalence in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), is the etiological agent of the endothelial tumour Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), the most common acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related malignancy worldwide and particularly in SSA. It also causes primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) and KSHV inflammatory cytokine syndrome (KICS). AIDS-related deaths have declined, due to global scale-up of antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, the vast majority of these occurred in SSA,

A infecção pelo herpesvírus humano tipo 8 (HHV-8) tem sido associada ao sarcoma de Kaposi (SK) iatrogênico, que acomete pacientes imunossuprimidos e/ou transplantados renais. Em populações consideradas saudáveis, a soroprevalência para o HHV-8 varia de 1% a 8%. O presente trabalho buscou: determinar a prevalência e os títulos de anticorpos anti-HHV-8 em pacientes com insuficiência renal crônica (IRC), submetidos ou não à terapia renal substitutiva (TRS) do Hospital do Rim e Hipertensão e Casa da Diálise da UNIFESP e da Santa Casa de Misericórdia de São Paulo e, comparar os resultados obtidos

Abstract:
Bartonella, a group of Gram negative facultative intracellular bacteria, are known to cause diseases, such as Cat Scratch Disease, Trench Fever and Carrion’s Disease, that involve angiogenesis during the infective cycle. B. bacilliformis, the etiological agent of Carrion’s Disease, causes a bi-phasic infection resulting in the formation of blood-filled angiogenic proliferative cutaneous nodules called verruga peruana. The work presented here was undertaken to characterize the mechanism by which these nodules are produced. Previous work in our laboratory suggested that the Bartonella henselae

Abstract:
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) causes several tumours and hyperproliferative disorders. Hypoxia plays an important role in KSHV lifecycle, as hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are involved in the latent/lytic switch and affect other KSHV genes, and as KSHV infection can in turn enhance cellular levels of HIFs. Two KSHV-associated tumours tend to develop in settings of relative hypoxia; Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) often occurs in the lower extremities and primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) exists in pleural effusions. A better knowledge of the pathways that regulate KSHV infection in hypo

Abstract:
Background: Surgical disease related to HIV is scantily documented with a paucity of data detailing the manifestations of HIV in surgery especially in resource-poor, high prevalence settings such as in South Africa. This review provides an update on the topical issues surrounding HIV and surgery. Objectives: The objective of the study was to determine the incidence, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, aspects of diagnosis and management of: HIV- associated salivary gland disease in particular parotid gland enlargement; Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) and lower limb lymphoedema; AIDS- related abdominal
