It is a reactive lymphadenitis appearing in HIV-positive drug abusers and homosexual men, involving lymph nodes mostly located in the neck and in axillary regions. This present review chapter describes the most salient histological and immunohistochemical features of lymph nodes of intravenous drug abusers affected by PGL. Microscopic changes are homogeneous and essentially comparable allowing to subgroup nodes according to their histologic pattern: those with hyperplastic and those with regressive changes. Hyperplastic changes include hyperplasia of germinal centers without or with fragmentation and vascularization, and increased postcapillary venules in the paracortex. Regressive changes are characterized by follicular involution and by follicular depletion with or without fibrosis. Immunohistologic phenotyping shows a peculiar infiltration of CD3/CD8+ lymphocytes in germinal centers and a progressive lysis of follicular dendritic reticulum cells. The presence of HIV antigens can be demonstrated in germinal centers with a reticular pattern paralleling that of follicular dendritic reticulum cells, in endothelial cells of paracortical venules, and in sinus macrophages. Furthermore, HIV genome is sometimes detectable by in situ hybridization in a few endothelial and mononuclear cells of the paracortex. Epstein Barr virus (EBV) antigens are occasionally observed in a few lymph node cells, while EBV genome seems to be absent during the PGL phase of the HIV infection. In conclusion, during PGL, immunohistologic features correlate well with the extent of the histologic changes.</p>","PeriodicalId":77597,"journal":{"name":"Progress in AIDS pathology","volume":"2 ","pages":"33-50"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13259632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The immunohistology of lymph nodes in HIV infection: a review.","authors":"G S Wood","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Most available evidence indicates that lymph node immunohistologic alterations in HIV-infected patients represent a dynamic process characterized by an initial florid follicular hyperplasia that ultimately progresses to a burned-out, lymphocyte depletion end-point. During this process, HIV-infected cells appear to traffic through the lymph node, and the germinal center serves as a reservoir relatively rich in HIV antigens and intact virus. The localization of HIV within the germinal center may provide one stimulus for the florid follicular hyperplasia typical of early HIV-related lymphadenopathy and may play a role in follicle lysis, a process whereby the accessory cell FDC network of follicles undergoes disruption, which may in turn be responsible for the eventual disappearance of B-cell follicles in late-stage disease. Lymph node CD4+ T cells are selectively depleted with an initial preferential loss of the CD4+ subset concerned with B-cell differentiation. The expression of the CD4 antigen by various other cell types including monocytes, macrophages, histiocytic dendritic cells, and FDC provides one explanation as to why these cells are subject to HIV infection. Except perhaps in end-stage disease, alterations among various lymph node cell subsets do not correlate well with those in the peripheral blood. The latter is therefore regarded as a more sensitive parameter of progressive immunologic changes in HIV infection.</p>","PeriodicalId":77597,"journal":{"name":"Progress in AIDS pathology","volume":"2 ","pages":"25-32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13259631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
