Investigators from the HIV Outpatient Study group, which is located at 10 sites in the United States, found that after a few years of taking protease inhibitors, HIV patients were beginning to show a significantly increased rate of myocardial infarctions. The researchers presented their findings at
BACKGROUND
Plasma concentrations of tenofovir increase when the drug is coadministered with some ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitors (PI/r). We hypothesized that tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-treated patients taking PI/r-based regimens would have a greater decline in renal function than
Recent studies have reported weight gain in virologically-suppressed persons living with HIV (PLWH) switched from older antiretroviral therapy (ART) to newer integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based regimens. In this study, we investigated whether weight gain differs among BACKGROUND
Hundreds of naturally occurring milk peptides are present in term human milk. Preterm milk is produced before complete maturation of the mammary gland, which could change milk synthesis and secretion processes within the mammary gland, leading to differences in protein expression and
Three inducible serine protease inhibitors (ISPI-1, 2, 3) have been purified from larval hemolymph of greater wax moth larvae, Galleria mellonella, and characterized at a molecular level. These inhibitors were synthesized after larvae were injected with a yeast polysaccharide, zymosan preparation.
The epithelium of larval midgut of the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonela, was replaced during the larval-pupal moult. The development of this moth was tentatively divided into 11 stages, from the full-grown larva of last instar to the 4-day-old pupa. The midgut at each stage was observed for (1)
HIV infection has been associated with diastolic heart failure and atrial fibrillation. The purpose of this study is to determine whether HIV infection is associated with differences in left ventricular mass (LVM), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), and left atrial volume (LAV) indexed
Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) is shown to be a very useful tool in treating two series of artificial substrate analogue inhibitors, peptide methyl ketones and chloromethyl ketones, of the serine protease thermitase. The backbone structure of the native polypeptide eglin c found in the
BACKGROUND
Bone mineral density (BMD) decreases 2%-6% in the 2 years after antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation. Pre-ART immune deficiency and early immune recovery may contribute to this loss.
METHODS
We pooled data from 3 studies of ART initiation in treatment-naive patients in which serial
Batroxobin is a thrombin-like serine protease from the venom of Bothrops atrox moojeni that clots fibrinogen. In contrast to thrombin, which releases fibrinopeptide A and B from the NH2-terminal domains of the Aα- and Bβ-chains of fibrinogen, respectively, batroxobin only releases fibrinopeptide A.
Granzymes (Gzm) are serine proteases, contained into the secretory granules of cytotoxic cells, responsible for the cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) against tumor cells and intracellular pathogens such as virus and bacteria. In fish, they have received little attention to their existence,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the change in bone mineral density (BMD) at specific sites in patients initiating antiretroviral therapy in a substudy of the ANRS 121 trial.
METHODS
Antiretroviral-naive patients were randomized (2: 1: 1) into three treatment strategy arms: a nonnucleoside reverse
Doxorubicin (Dox) can provide some stabilization in prostate cancer; however, its use is limited because of systemic toxicities, primarily cardiotoxicity and immunosuppression. The administration of a prodrug of doxorubicin, designed to permit selective activation by the tumor, would reduce general
BACKGROUND
The transmission of drug-resistant HIV in newly identified infected populations has become an underlying epidemic which can be better assessed with sensitive resistance testing. Since minority drug resistant variants cannot be detected by bulk sequencing, methods with improved sensitivity
Treatment options for individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) are restricted by the intrinsic resistance of the virus to nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) and the reduced susceptibility of HIV-2 to several protease inhibitors (PIs) used in
