Oxidative stress and plasma antioxidant micronutrients in humans with HIV infection.
Increased lipid peroxidation induced by reactive oxygen species may play a role in the stimulation of HIV replication. In this study we compared lipid peroxidation indexes and plasma antioxidant micronutrients between 49 nonsmoking HIV-positive patients with no active opportunistic infection (25 asymptomatic and 24 with AIDS) and 15 age-matched seronegative control subjects. Breath-alkane outpu...
متن کاملMicronutrients in HIV: A Bayesian Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND Approximately 28.5 million people living with HIV are eligible for treatment (CD4<500), but currently have no access to antiretroviral therapy. Reduced serum level of micronutrients is common in HIV disease. Micronutrient supplementation (MNS) may mitigate disease progression and mortality. OBJECTIVES We synthesized evidence on the effect of micronutrient supplementation on mortali...
متن کاملEvaluation of clinical course and laboratory findings in HIV/HTLV-1 co-infection compare with HIV mono infection
Background: In the last 10 years, co-infection of human immunodeficiency virus/human T-cell leukemia virus-1 (HIV/HTLV-1) has emerged as a worldwide health problem. These viruses has the same route to infect human but different effects on CD4 positive T-cells. There was controversial results about the influence of co-infection HIV/HTLV-1 pathogenesis. This study compared clinical course and lab...
متن کاملRole of micronutrients and natural antioxidants in fighting against HIV; a quick mini-review
Oxidative stress has been implicated in the progression of HIV to AIDS, since HIV usually replicates in a highly oxidized condition and CD4+ T lymphocytes can be activated via a cascade of internal oxidative pathways, which enhances the formation of proteins and enzymes. Thus, antioxidants should potentially be useful for the treatment and prevention of HIV infection as a new alterna...
