Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The incidence of tumors in HIV-infected individuals are still high compared to non-infected population, although longevity of HIV-infected individuals had been prolonged due to the development of anti-HIV drug and therapy. Especially, B-cell lymphoma was reported as 20% of HIV-infected individuals, which is very high incidence. Therefore, we hypothesized that genomic instability might be potentially existed in HIV-infected individuals before the tumoregenesis. In this study, we found genomic instability both in experiments using cell lines and in prematured B-cell lymphocytes using clinical samples from HIV-1 patients without malignancies, suggesting potential risks of malignancy.
