Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS) is a disease of children, particularly affecting the brain and the skin. There is a close link between AGS and increased amounts of a chemical called interferon. Normally humans only produce interferon when they are infected with a virus. In AGS, there is no viral infection. Instead, the cells in the cells of affected patients are confused into thinking that their own genetic material is coming from a virus. As a result they produce interferon all the time, which acts as a poison that damages the cells. The Investigators wish to treat AGS patients with drugs called reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTIs), used to fight the HIV-1 virus that causes AIDS. The investigators will monitor the effect of treatment on interferon levels, and look at other markers which might give us clues to how the drugs are working. The trial is funded by the Medical Research Council, and involves experts based in Edinburgh, Birmingham, Manchester and Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Multicenter Study of Options for Second-Line Effective Combination Therapy (SELECT)

The study was conducted on people who were taking their first anti-HIV drug regimen (including an Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NNRTI), a type of anti-HIV drug) but the drugs in this regimen were not doing a good job of fighting their HIV infection.
The main purpose of this study was to compare two other anti-HIV drug regimens to see how well they fight HIV. The study also looked at how well participants tolerate the drug regimens and how safe they are.
The study was designed to determine whether taking the combination of lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) plus raltegravir (RAL) works as well as what is usually used for second-line therapy: LPV/r plus the best-available nucleoside (nucleotide) reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) combination. Testing a regimen that does not include any NRTIs was important because NRTIs may no longer work for patients who received them as part of their first treatment regimen.

Evaluation of photon interaction parameters of Anti-HIV drugs

Author: Akbaba, Ugur ; Abu Al-Sayyed, Mohammed Ibrahim ; Alim, Bunyamin ; Sakar, Erdem ; Ozpolat, Ozgur Firat

Medical treatment inevitably exposes individuals to radiation, including those taking drugs used to treat and prevent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).Motivated by this, we investigated the radiation interaction properties of several HIV drugs to determine the interaction parameters, mass attenuation coefficient (MAC), at. cross section (ACS), electronic cross section (ECS), effective at. numbers (Zeff), and effective electron d. (Neff).We calculated the values using the Phy-X/PSD software in the range of 0.015-15 MeV.Addnl., we calculated the exposure build-up factor (EBF), and energy absorption build-up factor (EABF) values of the drugs up to 40 mean free path (MFP) using the geometric progression (G-P) method.From our findings, we determined that Combivir, with its relatively high heavy element content, had the highest radiation attenuation capacity, whereas the probability of Lopinavir interacting with photons was the lowest compared with the other drugs.The results of the EBF and EABF parameters, including the scattering effects, ordered the drugs opposite to the primary interaction parameters such as MAC, ACS, ECS, and Zeff.These findings can guide the treatment process of HIV-pos. patients and inform HIV prevention practices conducted alongside radiotherapy, as the interaction between radiation and a drug may cause deterioration in the drug's structure.

Life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias due to drug-induced QT prolongation

Q4 · MEDICINE

Article

Author: Pfister, R ; Michels, G ; Kochanek, M

BACKGROUND:

Long QT syndrome (LQTS) can lead to ventricular arrhythmia, especially torsade de pointes (TdP) tachycardia and/or ventricular tachycardia (VT). The aim of this study is to characterize patients with life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias associated with drug-induced LQTS and to identify risk factors of distinct presenting arrhythmias.

MATERIAL AND METHODS:

In this retrospective study, we present 33 consecutive cases of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias associated with drug-induced long QT, which were direct admitted as emergency to a medical intensive care unit (MICU) during an observational time of 6 years.

RESULTS:

Of 33 identified cases, 55 % presented with TdP with the need of resuscitation and 45 % showed nonsustained VT, respectively. In the total cohort the mean corrected QT interval (QTc) was 532 ± 29 ms, with 530 ± 31 ms (n = 14) in men and 533 ± 28 ms (n = 19) in women (p = 0.80), respectively. Cardiac drugs with QTc interval prolonging effect were reported in 24 % of cases, and the other 76 % involved noncardiac medications. Although hypokalemia is the most common risk factor for drug-induced malignant arrhythmias, a QTc interval of at least 500 ms seems to be the major determinant of the risk of drug-induced proarrhythmias. Interestingly, patients with TdP exhibit more bradycardia as such with VT.

CONCLUSIONS:

This is the first study of patients with drug-induced life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias who were admitted as a case of emergency to a MICU. Physicians should be aware of drug-induced LQTS and be able to identify patients at risk and avoid specific drugs in such patients.

¹⁸O proteomics reveal increased human apolipoprotein CIII in Hispanic HIV‐1+ women with HAART that use cocaine

Author: Suárez, Erick ; Jorge, Inmaculada ; Vázquez, Jesús ; Zenón, Frances ; Segarra, Annabell C. ; Meléndez, Loyda M. ; Serrano, Horacio ; Cruz, Ailed

Purpose:

Drug abuse is a major risk factor in the development and progression of HIV‐1. This study defines the alterations in the plasma proteome of HIV‐1‐infected women that use cocaine.

Experimental design:

Plasma samples from 12 HIV‐seropositive Hispanic women under antiretroviral therapy were selected for this study. Six sample pairs were matched between nondrug users and cocaine users. After IgG and albumin depletion, SDS‐PAGE, and in‐gel digestion, peptides from nondrug users and cocaine users were labeled with 16O and 18O, respectively, and subjected to LC‐MS/MS and quantitation using Proteome Discover and QuiXoT softwares and validated by ELISA.

Results:

A total of 1015 proteins were identified at 1% false discovery rates (FDR). Statistical analyses revealed 13 proteins with significant changes between the two groups, cocaine and noncocaine users (p < 0.05). The great majority pertained to protection defense function and the rest pertained to transport, homeostatic, regulation, and binding of ligands. Apolipoprotein CIII was increased in plasma of HIV+ Hispanic women positive for cocaine compared to HIV+ nondrug users (p ≤ 0.05).

Conclusions and clinical relevance:

Increased human apolipoprotein CIII warrants that these patients be carefully monitored to avoid the increased risk of cardiovascular events associated with HIV, HAART, and cocaine use.
