|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 말초 동맥과 정맥에 염증을 일으키는 병. 청장년층의 남자에게 잘 걸리는 다리 동맥에 생기는 병으로 동맥이 막히고 통증 때문에 발을 절기도 하는데 원인은 알려져 있지 않다. 병명은 이 병을 최초로 상세하게 보고한 미국의 의사 L. 버거(1879~1943)의 이름에서 연유한다. 동양인에게 많은 병으로, 대부분 젊은 남성, 특히 장년기 남성에게서 나타난다. 원인은 알 수 없으나 흡연이 병의 악화를 초래한다. 사지의 동맥과 정맥에 염증이 일어나 혈전이 생기면 내강을 막아 혈액이 흐르지 못하게 되어 그 앞의 말초조직이 괴사에 빠지거나 손발이 차갑고, 손가락-발가락이 보라색 또는 검은색으로 변한다. 또, 이 증세가 계속되는 동안 손발가락에 통증이 일어나고 궤양이 발생한다. 치료는 증세의 정도와 폐색된 혈관의 부위에 따라 연고를 바르거나 혈관확장제-순환개선제-혈소판응집억제제를 사용하나, 어떤 치료도 효과가 없을 경우 손발가락의 소절단, 드물게는 무릎 이하의 대절단을 해야 한다. 일반적으로 이 병의 예후는 양호하여 혈류가 회복되고 궤양만 치료되면 재발이 적다. |

|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 보편적으로 성교 또는 성기접촉에 의해 걸리는 접촉 전염병으로 매독, 임질, 무른궤양, 샅굴육아종 등을 말한다. 치료는 원인균에 따른 적절한 항생요법이다. |

| 설명 | 매독균의 reagin에 대한 항체. 매독의 선별검사로 사용되며 매독 치료에 대한 반응 여부와 치료효과 판정에도 사용된다. 매독외에도 전신성홍반성낭창, 류마티스관절염 등에서도 양성으로 나타날 수 있다. |

| HIV antibodies | Antibodies reactive with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV, previously called HTLV-III/lav) antigens of aids. This includes HIV-1 antibodies and HIV-2 antibodies. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| HIV antigens | Antigens associated with specific proteins of the human adult T-cell immunodeficiency virus (HIV); also called HTLV-III-associated and lymphadenopathy-associated virus (lav) antigens. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV core protein p24 | A major core protein of the human immunodeficiency virus encoded by the HIV gag gene. HIV-seropositive individuals mount a significant immune response to p24 and thus detection of antibodies to p24 is one basis for determining HIV infection by elisa and western blot assays. The protein is also being investigated as a potential HIV immunogen in vaccines. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV encephalopathy | <immunology> A frequent cerebral condition in people with AIDS that results in the loss of cognitive capacity, affecting the ability to function in a social or occupational setting. Its cause has not been determined exactly, but may result from HIV infection of cells in the brain or an inflammatory reaction to such infection. (09 Oct 1997) |
| HIV enhancer | Cis-acting regulatory sequences in the HIV long terminal repeat (ltr) which play a major role in induction or augmentation of HIV gene expression in response to environmental stimuli such as mitogens, phorbol esters, or other viruses. The HIV enhancer is the binding site for many cellular transcription factors including the nuclear factor nf-kappa b. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV enteropathy | Chronic, well-established diarrhoea (greater than one month in duration) without an identified infectious cause after thorough evaluation, in an HIV-positive individual. It is thought to be due to direct or indirect effects of HIV on the enteric mucosa. HIV enteropathy is a diagnosis of exclusion and can be made only after other forms of diarrhoeal illness have been ruled out. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV envelope protein gp120 | External envelope protein of the human immunodeficiency virus which is encoded by the HIV env gene. It has a molecular weight of 120,000 kD and contains numerous glycosylation sites. Gp120 binds to cells expressing CD4 cell-surface antigens, most notably t4-lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages. Gp120 has been shown to interfere with the normal function of CD4 and is at least partly responsible for the cytopathic effect of HIV. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV envelope protein gp160 | An envelope protein of the human immunodeficiency virus that is encoded by the HIV env gene. It has a molecular weight of 160,000 kD and contains numerous glycosylation sites. It serves as a precursor for both the HIV envelope protein gp120 and the HIV envelope protein gp41. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV envelope protein gp41 | Transmembrane envelope protein of the human immunodeficiency virus which is encoded by the HIV env gene. It has a molecular weight of 41,000 and is glycosylated. The n-terminal part of gp41 is thought to be involved in cell fusion with the CD4 antigens of t4 lymphocytes, leading to syncytial formation. Gp41 is one of the most common HIV antigens detected by immunoblotting. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV infections | Includes the spectrum of human immunodeficiency virus infections that range from asymptomatic seropositivity, thru aids-related complex (arc), to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (aids). (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV integrase | <enzyme> Enzyme of the human immunodeficiency virus that is required to integrate viral DNA into cellular DNA in the nucleus of a host cell. HIV integrase is a DNA nucleotidyltransferase encoded by the pol gene. Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV integrase inhibitors | Inhibitors of HIV integrase, an enzyme required for integration of viral DNA into cellular DNA. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV long-terminal repeat | Regulatory sequences important for viral replication that are located on each end of the HIV genome. The ltr includes the HIV enhancer, promoter, and other sequences. Specific regions in the ltr include the negative regulatory element (nre), nf-kappa b binding sites , sp1 binding sites, tata box, and trans-acting responsive element (tar). The binding of both cellular and viral proteins to these regions regulates HIV transcription. (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV protease | <enzyme> Enzyme of the human immunodeficiency virus that is required for post-translational cleavage of gag and gag-pol precursor polyproteins into functional products needed for viral assembly. HIV protease is an aspartic protease encoded by the amino terminus of the pol gene. Registry number: EC 3.4.23.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV protease inhibitors | Inhibitors of HIV protease, an enzyme required for production of proteins needed for viral assembly. (12 Dec 1998) |
