Human herpesvirus 8/Kaposi Sarcoma herpesvirus cell association during evolution of Kaposi Sarcoma

Article Abstract:

Kaposi Sarcoma is a global clinical problem due to the expanding HIV infections and it is associated with a herpesvirus. It is characterized by the development of CD34 (super +) tumor spindle cells, inflammatory cells, and angiogenesis and it is noticed that cell proliferation is higher in early stages than in the later stages.

Cocaine injection and coxsackievirus B3 infection increase heart disease during murine AIDS

Article Abstract:

Mice infected with murine leukemia virus and coxsackievirus are more likely to develop heart disease than healthy mice. Murine leukemia virus causes a disease in mice similar to AIDS. Injections of cocaine increased the severity of coxsackievirus infection.

Evidence of productively infected CD8+ T cells in patients with AIDS: implications for HIV-1 pathogenesis

Article Abstract:

Researchers show for the first time that mature CD8+ T cells can be infected by HIV. This may explain why these cells decrease in number and activity against HIV during the infection.

Infection, CD8 lymphocytes
