AIDS related opportunistic infections, going but not gone

Archives of Pharmacal Research, 2002
It is now more than two decades since the AIDS epidemic began with a cluster of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) in a community of homosexual men. Since then, many other infections have been characterized as opportunistic infections secondary to HIV infection. These include, but are not limited to, infections with Toxoplasma gondii, Cytomegalovirus

Experimental Results on Chloroquine and AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections

JAIDS Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes, 2001
Apart from its antiretroviral effects, chloroquine (CQ) has other properties that may be of interest in setting of HIV infection. First, it is an anti-inflammatory drug and, second, it may help to prevent several AIDS-related opportunistic infections.

Patients at Risk for AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections

New England Journal of Medicine, 1985
We studied 81 men (79 homosexuals and 2 drug abusers) with persistent lymphadenopathy to determine whether those at risk for AIDS-related opportunistic infections could be identified prospectively. (Sixty-nine of 76 [91 per cent] had antibodies to human T-cell lymphotropic virus Type III [HTLV-III], and 76 of 79 [96 per cent] had abnormal T4/T8 cell ...

Tissue Diagnosis of Selected AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections

The American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 1987
Opportunistic infections are the most common initial manifestations of AIDS and, in many instances, are first encountered in surgical specimens. Pneumocystis carinii pneumonitis is by far the most frequent infection seen in biopsy specimens of AIDS patients. Most pathologists are familiar with its histopathologic presentations from previous experience.

Systemic Antifungal Agents Against AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections: Current Status and Emerging Drugs in Development

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 1999
No effective drug was available for the treatment of systemic fungal infections until the discovery of Amphotericin 8 in 1953. Since then flucytosine, azoles and later the triazoles, have now become available. The current interest in the development of new antifungal agents can partially be explained by the dramatic rise in the number of AIDS cases ...
