Corticosteroids are used therapeutically as potent immunosuppressive and antiinflammatory drugs for a broad spectrum of diseases. Although corticosteroids are known to inhibit the production of many cytokines in activated T cells, there is also evidence for increases in IL-4 and in some cases IFNγ production. These conflicting results may be caused by contrary effects of corticosteroids on different...
HIV Pr55 gag has in the absence of other viral components the capacity to self assemble in budding noninfectious virus-like particles (VLP). The immunological spectrum of the HIV-1 IIIB gag-derived VLP was expanded either by stable anchoring of chimeric modified gp120 on the surface of the VLP (type 1) or by replacing sequences of the Pr55 gag precursor by the V3 loop and a...
Human Jurkat T-cell clones containing stably integrated HIV-1 LTR or HTLV-1 LTR/lacZ vectors were studied to compare the responses of integrated LTRs to T-cell activation. Responses were compared also with those obtained in parallel with Jurkat cells stably expressing lacZ under the control of the cellular enhancer element NF-AT of the IL-2 promoter. Activation induced via the cell surface TCR/CD3...
