Nef Enhances Human Immunodeficiency Virus Replication and Responsiveness to Interleukin-2 in Human Lymphoid Tissue Ex Vivo
1 May 1999
Abstract excerpt
The nef gene is important for the pathogenicity associated with simian immunodeficiency virus infection in rhesus monkeys and with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in humans. The mechanisms by which nef contributes to pathogenesis in vivo remain unclear. We investigated the contribution of nef to HIV-1 replication in human lymphoid tissue ex vivo by studying infection with parental HIV-1...
