Abstract
We categorized LE into 5 groups. LE caused by virus infection, autoantibody-mediated LE, LE with autoimmune disease, LE associated with drugs and LE during pregnancy. LE having the antibodies against intracellular antigens frequently related to cancer and are resistant to treatment. While, LE with a...

Abstract
We describe two patients with cerebral manifestations of influenza A (H1N1)v. A 13-year-old boy developed severe cerebral oedema and increased intracranial pressure despite medical treatment and external drainage of cerebrospinal fluid. He was treated with bifrontal decompressive craniectomy with go...

Abstract
In Japan, about 20 million people were infected with pandemic (H1N1) 2009 virus between July 2009 and March 2010. About 60% of them were under 15 years, but only 38 pediatric deaths were reported. The reasons for hospitalization were respiratory and neurological complications. Children with pneumoni...

Abstract
We have analyzed changes in the expression of mir-146a in primary human fetal microglial cells upon infection with HIV-1 and found increased expression of mir-146a. We further show that CCL8/MCP-2 is a target for mir-146a in HIV-1 infected microglia, as overexpression of mir-146a prevented HIV-induc...

Abstract
Nipah virus (NiV) is a highly pathogenic paramyxovirus that was first isolated in 1999 during an outbreak in Malaysia. In contrast to other paramyxoviruses NiV infects many mammalian species. Because of its zoonotic potential, the high pathogenicity and the lack of therapeutic treatment, NiV was cla...
