Novel 4'-trifluoromethyl-5'-norcarbocyclic purine phosphonic acid analogs were efficiently synthesized from commercially available 1,3-dihydroxy cyclopentane (5). Trifluoromethylation was successfully performed by using the Ruppert-Prakash reaction. The purine nucleosidic bases were efficiently coupled by using the Mitsunobu reaction. The synthesized adenosine phosphonic acids analogs 13 and 16 were screened for antiviral activity against human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). Adenine derivative 13 exhibited significant anti-HIV-1 activity.

후천성 면역 결핍 증후군(AIDS, Aquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome)과 사람 면역결핍 바이러스 (HIV, Human Immunodeficiency Virus)관련 질환은 1981년 처음 AIDS가 보고된 이래 전 세계적으로 인류의 건강을 위협하고 있는 공중보건학적 문제이다. 그동안 HIV/AIDS 관련 질환에 대한 치료들은 주로 감염 경로 차단 및 관련된 내과적 질환의 치료에 초점이 맞추어져 왔다. 그러나 AIDS 환자 본인뿐만 아니라 가족, 치료진들은 흔히 HIV 감염으로 인한 심리적인 어려움에서부터 HIV 전파 위험을 높이는 물질 오남용 문제, 우울증, 치매 같은 전형적인 정신과 질환 및 자살에 이르기 까지 다양한 종류의 정신건강 상의 문제들에 자주 직면한다. 이와 같은 신경정신과적 문제들은 치료 결과나 예후, 삶의 질 등에 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문에 환자의 가족들은 AIDS로 인한 정신과적 질환이나 현상들에 대해 잘 이해하고 적절하게 대처할 필요가 있다.

Human immunodeficiency virus type (HIV-1 )은 복사에 필수적인 전사촉진단질유전자인 tat를 가지고 있다. 우리는 유전자 재조합기법을 사용하여 tat 유전자와 nef 유전자가 결핍된 HIV-1을 제조하였다. nef, tat-결핍 HIV-1 은 C $D_4$$^{+T}$ 세포에서 전혀 복제를 하지 못하였다. 반면, tat 단백질을 발현하도록 만들어진 재조합 Jurkat-tat세포에서는 복제능력을 다시 회복함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 nef, tat-결핍 바이러스를 Jurkat-tat 세포에서 두달이상 계대배양했을 때, revertant가 전혀 생기지 않았다. 또한, nef, tat- 결핍 HIV-1 에 chloramphenicol acetyltransferase 유전자를 삽입시키고, 이의 발현정도를 측정함으로써 원형바이러스와 마찬가지로 민감하면서도 안전하고 편리하게 바이러스의 복제를 측정할 수 있었다. nef, tat- 결핍 바이러스는 항 HIV-1 제의 활성도를 측정하고자할 때 원형 바이러스의 대용으로 안전하게 사용될 수 있을것이다.다.

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-l protein Tat acts as a transcription transactivator that stimulates expression of the infected viral genome. It is released from infected cells and can similarly affect neighboring cells. The nucleocapsid is an important protein that has a related significant role in early mRNA expression, and which contributes to the rapid viral replication that occurs during HIV-1 infection. To investigate the interaction between the Tat and nucleocapsid proteins, we utilized cDNA micro arrays using pTat and flag NC cotransfection in HEK 293T cells and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction to validate the micro array data. Four upregulated genes and nine downregulated genes were selected as candidate genes. Gene ontology analysis was conducted to define the biological process of the input genes. A proteomic approach using PathwayStudio determined the relationship between Tat and nucleocapsid; two automatically built pathways represented the interactions between the upregulated and downregulated genes. The results indicate that the up- and downregulated genes regulate HIV-1 replication and proliferation, and viral entry.

Diagnosis of cerebral syphilitic gumma is frequently determined at the time of surgery, because imaging and laboratory findings demonstrate the elusive results. A 59-year-old woman presenting dysarthria showed a mass on her brain computed tomography. She was first suspected of brain tumor, but histological results from surgical resection revealed cerebral gumma due to neurosyphilis. After operation, she presented fever and rash with an infiltration on a chest X-ray. Histological assessment of skin was consistent with syphilis. Fluorescent treponemal antibody absorbed test IgG in cerebrospinal fluid was positive. She was successfully treated with ceftriaxone for 14 days.

In the mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of HIV infection described in previous papers, the population under consideration is assumed to be homogeneous community of homosexual males for which the parameter x represents the constant rate at which individual members of the population acquire new sexual partners. This is a gross oversimplification since it is well known that individuals vary widely in their levels of sexual activity and in this papers the heterogeneous model is modified to allow for this variation. The pattern on the epidemic character of HIV, the causative agent of AIDS, was analysed by heterogeneous-mixing model. The computer simulation was performed using real date.

The aim of this study is to estimate the seroconversion date of the human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) infection for the HIV infected patients in Korea. Data are collected from two cohorts. The first cohort is a group of "seroprevalent" patients who were seropositive and AIDS-free at entry. The other is a group of "seroincident" patients who were initially seronegative but later converted to HIV antibody-positive. The seroconversion dates of the seroincident cohort are available while those of the seroprevalent cohort are not. Estimation of seroconversion date is important because it can be used to calculate the incubation period of AIDS which is defined as the elapsed time between the HIV infection and the development of AIDS. In this paper, a Weibull regression model Is fitted for the seroincident cohort using information about the elapsed time since seroconversion and the CD4$^{+}$ cell count.The seroconversion dates for the seroprevalent cohort are imputed on the basis of the marker of maturity of HIV infection percent of CD4$^{+}$cell count.unt.

현재 HIV(human immunodeficiency virus) 감염에 대하여 보다 많은 효과적인 약물치료법이 가능하다. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)로 언급되는 이 치료법은 항 HIV치료제의 다양한 병용법으로 구성된다. 그러나, 최근에 이렇게 치료된 환자들에게 중요한 독성들(toxicities)로서 빈번하게 상당한 지질이상과 혈중당의 항상성 조절장애와 연관된 몸의 지방 분포 비정상으로서 나타나는, 광범위한 대사성 합병증(metabolic complications)이 출현해왔다. 이러한 합병증의 관리는 표준적인 치료 중재(interventions)와 연관하여 지질과 당 대사와 관련된 항 HIV치료제의 특성 있는 효과를 이해하면서, 항 HIV 약물들을 조절하는 것을 포함한다. 본 증례는 항HIV 약물요법과정에서 나타난 상당한 지질 이상, 매우 높은 LDL 수치와 높은 TG수치에 따르는 후속 약물요법을 보여주며, 개별화된 항 HIV 약물요법을 수행하면서, 대사성 합병증에 관련된 수치의 검사와 주기적인 약물치료과정의 모니터링을 권하여 HIV에 감염된 환자들의 효과적인 치료를 향상시키기 위한 것이다.

Mathematical models for describing the Human Immunodeficiency Virus(HIV) infection can be devised to better understand how the HIV causes Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome(AIDS). The HIV models can then be used to find clues to curing AIDS from a control theoretical point of view. Some models take Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes(CTL) response to HIV infection into account, and others consider mutants against the drugs. However, to the best of our knowledge, there has been no model developed, which describes CTL response and mutant HIV together. Hence we propose a unified model to consider both of these. On the basis of the resulting model, we also present a Model Predictive Control(MPC) scheme to find an optimal treatment strategy. The optimization is performed under the assumption that the Structured Treatment Interruption(STI) policy is employed.

Medicinal plants were screened for the inhibitory effects on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 pretense. Of the extracts tested, the strong inhibitory effects were observed in the acetone extracts of the pericarp of Camellia japonica. Camelliatannin H from the pericarp of C. japonica showed a potent inhibitory activity on HIV-1 pretense. Effects of the extract and compound from leaves of Zanthoxylum piperitum on the enzyme activities were investigated in the liver of bromobenzene-treated rats. The methanol extract and protocatechuic acid isolated from Z. pipetitum reduced the activity of aniline hydroxylase that increased by bromobenzene, while did not affect the activities of aminopyrin N-demethylase and glutathione S-transferase. The extract and protocatechuic acid recovered significantly the activity of epoxide hydrolase decreased by bromobenzene.
