The ability of the HIV-1 Tat to induce the expression of genes with kinetics that are distinct from those seen in TNFα induction suggests that mechanisms in addition to activation of NF-κB contribute to the observed induction. Tat may contribute to the pathogenesis of AIDS-related KS through induction of cellular genes that are pro-proliferative and proinflammatory and may enhance the recruitment of leukocytes, which are a possible source of further cytokines, Tat and HHV8.

Effective prevention interventions for female CSW can be implemented through public services and non-governmental organizations while HIV rates are still low, and key outcomes can be monitored using data obtained from periodic screening examinations.

SIE levels amongst HIV-infected children were affected by HIV infection, use of ZDV, and presence or absence of anemia. SIE levels amongst HIV-infected children were generally lower than 200 IU/l. This characterization of SIE levels will facilitate clinical trials of exogenous recombinant human erythropoietin in HIV-infected children with anemia.

KSHV infection was significantly more common in this region of Zambia in 1985 than it currently is in the United States. Our data are consistent with KSHV being well-established in this region prior to 1985 and that continued adult transmission of the virus was occurring. The high seroprevalence in the adolescent age-group and the relatively linear increase in prevalence with age suggest that non-sexual modes of transmission may be important for KSHV transmission in Africa.

T- and B-cell populations of the intestinal mucosa remain functional or are even activated in patients with AIDS, even when the numbers of both mucosal and circulating CD4+ lymphocytes are strongly decreased.
