  • 目的 研究艾滋病痴呆综合征(ADC)患者体内HIV-1 nef基因变异规律,为ADC发病机制的研究提供依据.方法 提取1例ADC病例尸检标本的外周(脾)和中枢神经系统(基底核、额叶灰质、脑膜、颞叶)共5个部位组织中的基因组DNA,PCR扩增HIV-1 nef基因,与pMD19-T克隆载体连接后,蓝白斑筛选挑取阳性菌落测序,序列经BLAST分析后,每个部位取5个序列,利用Bioedit、MEGA4等生物学软件进行基因距离、系统进化树以及同义/非同义替换值(ds/dn)等分析.结果 该ADC患者感染的是HIV-1 B亚型,与标准序列HXB2比较,该病例的HIV-1 nef基因存在变异,且外周组织与中枢神经系统各组织间以及中枢神经组织不同部位的基因变异不同,相同组织来源的nef序列基因距离较小,外周和中枢的nef基因距离差异较大,该病例H IV-1 nef基因在外周和中枢神经系统变异时均受到负向选择压力.结论 ADC患者体内HIV-1 nef基因存在多样性,且不同组织部位的基因变异不同,其导致的Nef蛋白某些氨基酸位点的改变对其生物学活性的影响有待进一步研究.

    • BACKGROUND: PPARγ and RBP4 are known to regulate lipid and glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. The influences of PPARγ (C1431T and Pro12Ala) and RBP4 (-803GA) polymorphisms on metabolic syndrome in HIV-infected patients receiving anti-retroviral therapy were examined in this study. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study of HIV-1 infected adults with antiretroviral therapy for more than one year in the National Cheng Kung University Hospital was conducted. The gene polymorphisms were determined by quantitative PCR. RESULTS: Ninety-one patients were included in the study. Eighty-two (90.1%) patients were males with a mean age of 44.4 years. For the C1431T polymorphism in PPARγ, while patients with the T allele (48.4%) had trends toward lower rate of hypertriglyceridemia, the borderline significance together with insignificant power did not support the protective effect of the T allele against development of hypertriglyceridemia. For the Pro12Ala polymorphism in PPARγ, although patients with the Pro/Ala genotype (8.8%) had a higher level of serum LDL (138.0 vs. 111.5 mg/dl, P = 0.04) and trends toward higher rates of hypercholesterolemia and serum LDL>110 mg/dl, these variables were found to be independent of the Pro/Ala genotype in the multivariate analysis. For the -803GA polymorphism in RBP4, patients with the A allele (23.1%) more often had insulin resistance (HOMA>3.8; 33.3 vs. 8.7%, P = 0.01) and more often received anti-hypoglycemic drugs (14.3 vs. 1.4%, P = 0.04). The detrimental effect of the A allele in RBP4 -803GA polymorphism on development of insulin resistance was supported by the multivariate analysis adjusting for covariates. CONCLUSION: The impacts of PPARγ C1431T and Pro12Ala polymorphisms on metabolism in HIV-infected patients are not significant. RBP4 -803GA polymorphism has increased risk of insulin resistance in HIV-infected patients with anti-retroviral therapy.

    • 本研究探讨了艾滋病患者接受高活性抗逆转录病毒疗法 (HAART) 后免疫重建炎症反应综合征 (IRIS) 的免疫发病机制。该项前瞻性队列研究共纳入了238例接受了最初的HAART治疗的艾滋病患者。分别于研究基线时、接受HAART12周、24周后和出现IRIS时采集患者的血样。通过流式细胞仪或酶联免疫吸附法分别测定淋巴细胞亚群、Th1和Th2细胞因子、IL-7的水平。238例患者中,有47例发生了IRIS。在初始治疗后的24周后,出现IRIS和未出现IRIS患者的初始、记忆和活化CD4 + 和 CD8 + 细胞的比例没有显著差异。出现IRIS的患者组CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + 调节T细胞的比例在治疗前,治疗后12周、24周和出现IRIS时均明显低于未出现IRIS组的比例。此外,在治疗后4周和IRIS出现时,IRIS组的IL-2和IFN-γ水平均显著高于未出现IRIS组;IL-4和IL-10水平则明显低于未出现IRIS组。血浆IL-7水平随着HAART治疗的开展逐渐降低,且在所有的时间点上,IRIS组的IL-7水平均显著高于另一组。研究结果提示,Th1/Th2、持续降低的CD4 + CD25 + Fox3 + 比例和高IL-7水平可能是接受HAART治疗患者出现IRIS疾病进展的关键因素。
