Human T lymphotropic virus type 1 uveitis. [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 1994
The human retroviruses, HTLV-I and HIV, are playing clinically important roles in a variety of ocular disorders, particularly in uveitis. Both viruses are integrated in the genome of infected T cells. HIV-I infection causes the death of the infected T cells, thereby affecting the host defence system and causing AIDS. Subsequent opportunistic infections

Phosphonated Carbocyclic 2'-Oxa-3'-azanucleosides as New Antiretroviral Agents [PDF]

, 2007
Phosphonated carbocyclic 2¢-oxa-3¢-azanucleosides have been synthesized and tested for their antiretroviral activity. The obtained results have shown that some of the compounds were as powerful as azydothymidine in inhibiting the reverse transcriptase ...

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*

Xenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...
