Alterações metabólicas da síndrome lipodistrófica do HIV

Abstract: The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has reduced morbidity and mortality in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). However, prolonged treatment with combination regimens can be difficult to sustain because of problems with adherence and toxic effects. Treatment with antiretroviral agents--protease inhibitors in particular--has uncovered a syndrome of abnormal fat redistribution, impaired glucose metabolism, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia, collectively te… Show more

“…Clinically there are three patterns of body fat redistribution: (1) lipoatrophy: localized fat loss in the limbs, face and buttocks; (2) lipohypertrophy: central fat accumulation in the trunk, abdomen and posterior neck (buffalo hump); and (3) mixed pattern (lipoatrophy plus lipohypertrophy) [22]. Another sign that can be present is breast enlargement, both in men and in women [23].…”

“…Hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance can occur as a result of therapy with PI or as a consequence of the HIV infection [22,30]. Initially, it was believed that the PI do not influence carbohydrate metabolism in prepubertal children, due to the higher insulin sensitivity observed in this phase [17].…”

“…13 On the other hand, some studies suggest the participation of non-PI antiretrovirals [reverse transcriptase inhibitors analogous to nucleosides (NRTI)] in the common metabolic alterations among HIV/AIDS subjects, said to result in cardiovascular disease. 14 An increase in coronary events has also been observed in infected populations that have never used antiretrovirals, suggesting a direct effect of the virus itself on the atherogenic process 7 and/or individual exposure to smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and traditionally recognized risk factors associated with the development of coronary atherosclerosis. 15 However, despite the above mentioned, the association of risk factors with atherosclerotic ischemic cardiopathy in these patients is still controversial.…”

“…As mudanças corporais têm sido relacionadaa à lipohipertrofia (aparecimento de gordura dorsocervical, expansão da circunferência do pescoço, aumento do volume dos seios e acúmulo de gordura na região abdominal) e à lipoatrofia (diminuição de gordura periférica, com perda de tecido subcutâneo na face, braços, pernas e nádegas). A lipodistrofia também tem sido associada a alterações no metabolismo glicêmico, resistência insulínica e dislipidemia (Safrin & Grunfeld, 1999;Valente, Reis, Machado, Succi & Chacra, 2005).…”
