Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. These contrast with benign tumors, which do not spread. Possible signs and symptoms include a lump, abnormal bleeding, ...
Infection by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) causes chronic ongoing inflammation in HIV-1 seropositive individuals as shown by high plasma levels of inflammatory cytokines and production of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs). One source ...
The incidence of anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC) and anal dysplasia is currently increasing significantly. This dysplasia is described as either high-grade anal intraepithelial (HAIN) or low-grade anal intraepithelial (LAIN). Factors that are ...
The top open access Journals of HIV and AIDS (JHA) focuses on remarkable advances in our understanding of HIV science and its clinical evolution and management alternatives, comprising anti-retroviral and palliative therapies, and public health po ...
Cancer: An abnormal growth of cells which tend to proliferate in an uncontrolled way and, in some cases, to metastasize (spread). Cancer isn't one disease. it's a gaggle of quite&nbs ...
Genetic research is increasingly turning to studies of sequence variation in genes encoding proteins of known structure and function. The principal question in these studies is whether sequence ...
Bacteria have to cope in their natural environment or during bacterial infection in association with the host immune system to reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are known to cause an oxidative stress ...
Journal Article is sometimes called a Scientific Article, a Peer-Reviewed Article, or a Scholarly Research Article. Together, journal articles in a particular field are often referred to as The Literature. Journal articles are most often Primary R ...
Multiple sclerosis causes many different symptoms, including vision loss, pain, fatigue and impaired coordination. The symptoms, severity and duration can vary from person to person. Some people may be symptom free for most of their lives, while o ...
The immune response in autoimmune disease recapitulates that of responses directed against infection, except that self antigens are, or become, the target of the adaptive immune system. These self antigens may drive a process that is localised wit ...
This study describes the nutritional status and complications of people with HIV/AIDS. Of the 107 participants, 42% were considered “at nutritional risk” and 12% were considered malnourished. The most commonl ...
Clinical manifestations of certain STDs such as syphilis facilitate the transmission of HIV. With syphilis, there is an increase in the shedding of HIV in coinfected individuals, because of the presence of a chancre whic ...
In HIV-1 infection, the early set-point viral load strongly predicts both viral transmission and disease progression. The factors responsible for the wide spectrum of set-point viral loads are complex and likely reflect ...
Bacterial growth is a complex process that involves numerous anabolic and catabolic reactions, which result in cell division. This chapter describes the various stages of bacterial growth under pure culture conditions and its relevance with growth ...
HIV-1 has proved to infect regulatory T cells (Treg) modifying their phenotype and impairing their suppressive capacity. As Treg cells are a crucial component in the preservation of the immune homeostasis, we researched ...
Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. These contrast with benign tumors, which do not spread. Possible signs and symptoms include ...
The development of culture-independent techniques for microbiological analysis has uncovered the previously unappreciated complexity of the bacterial microbiome at various anatomic sites. The microbiome of the lung has relatively less bact ...
Journal of Mucosal Immunology Research is an open access peer reviewed journal that deals with different aspects of mucosal innate immune system. This immunology journal publishes research findings on the mucosal membran ...
Opportunistic infections (OIs) are defined as infections that are more frequent or more severe because of immune-suppression in HIV infected persons, and they are the major clinical manifestation of HIV patients. The nat ...
Clinical manifestations of certain STDs such as syphilis facilitate the transmission of HIV. With syphilis, there is an increase in the shedding of HIV in coinfected individuals, because of the presence of a chancre whic ...
