Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related fibroinflammatory systemic disease accounts for 7% of all noninfectious aneurysms of the thoracic aorta. A patient was admitted with a symptomatic ascending aortic aneurysm and thickened aortic wall (outer/inner diameter 55/45 mm), which was replaced. Probes revealed IgG4-related aortitis associated with a primary tuberculosis infection. Corticosteroid and antituberculosis therapies were used, and the patient's clinical evolution was favorable. The optimal treatment strategy of IgG4-related aortitis, a new entity, remains vague. Inner aortic diameter alone does not justify aortic replacement, but wall thickening may mimic intramural hematoma. In this particular case of IgG4-related aortitis, immunosuppressive treatment alone, as an alternative to a surgical procedure, may be debatable.

Abstract We present a case of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease with pancreatic and extrapancreatic involvement, including the biliary and renal systems. Given the importance of imaging methods for the diagnosis of IgG4-related disease and its differentiation from pancreatic adenocarcinoma, we emphasize important abdominal computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings related to this recently recognized systemic autoimmune disease.

El 11 de julio de 2005 el grupo denominado G4 -Alemania, Japón, India y Brasil- presenta a la Asamblea General una propuesta de ampliación del Consejo de Seguridad de Naciones Unidas. A partir de lo anterior se analiza el panorama de Brasil en el G4 y su pretensión de asumir un puesto preponderante en el principal órgano de Naciones Unidas, como representante de América Latina.

The yeast gene KEM1 (also named SEP1/DST2/XRN1/RAR5) produces a G4-DNA-dependent nuclease that binds to G4 tetraplex DNA structure and cuts in a single-stranded region 5' to the G4 structure. G4-DNA generated from yeast telomeric oligonucleotides competitively inhibits the cleavage reaction, suggesting that this enzyme may interact with yeast telomeres in vivo. Homozygous deletions of the KEM1 gene in yeast block meiosis at the pachytene stage, which is consistent with the hypothesis that G4 tetraplex DNA may be involved in homologous chromosome pairing during meiosis. We conjectured that the mitotic defects of kem1/sep1 mutant cells, such as a higher chromosome loss rate, are also due to failure in processing G4-DNA, especially at telomeres. Here we report two phenotypes associated with a kem1-null allele, cellular senescence and telomere shortening, that provide genetic evidence that G4 tetraplex DNA may play a role in telomere functioning. In addition, our results reveal that chromosome ends in the same cells behave differently in a fashion dependent on the KEM1 gene product.
