Neutralization of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) mediated by parotid IgA of HIV-1-infected patients.
Infection with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) has been shown to elicit a serum antibody response with neutralizing activity against T cell line-adapted HIV strains and primary HIV-1 isolates. Mucosal surfaces are the primary route of HIV-1 infection. Evidence is presented here for the presence of HIV-neutralizing antibodies in secretions. Infection of mucosal cells with HIV stimula...
متن کاملCross-neutralization of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 and 2 and simian immunodeficiency virus isolates.
In contrast to infrequent and low-titer cross-neutralization of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates by HIV-2- and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-positive sera, extensive cross-neutralization of HIV-2NIH-Z, SIVMAC251, and SIVAGM208K occurs with high titer, suggesting conservation of epitopes and mechanism(s) of neutralization. The V3 regions of HIV-2 and SIV isolates, minim...
متن کاملResistance mechanism of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 protease to inhibitors: A molecular dynamic approach
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitors comprise an important class of drugs used in HIV treatments. However, mutations of protease genes accelerated by low fidelity of reverse transcriptase yield drug resistant mutants of reduced affinities for the inhibitors. This problem is considered to be a serious barrier against HIV treatment for the foreseeable future. In this st...
متن کاملQuantification Analysis of Dot Blot Assays for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 and 2 Antibodies
Objective Dot Blot (DB) assay provides highly specific results, but usually not reliable for quantification of antibody production. The need for a more objective DB assay to provide a better definition of the immune status, against HIV antigens, promoted this study to be done to develop a quantitative DB assay. Material and Methods Dot blot (DB) strips for antibodies directed to human immuno...
متن کاملHuman immunodeficiency virus type 1 mutants that escape neutralization by human monoclonal antibody IgG1b12. off.
IgG1b12, a human monoclonal antibody (MAb) to an epitope overlapping the CD4-binding site on gp120, has broad and potent neutralizing activity against most primary human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates. To assess whether and how escape mutants resistant to IgG1b12 can be generated, we cultured primary HIV-1 strain JRCSF in its presence. An escape mutant emerged which was approxim...
