Growth of macrophage-tropic and primary human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates in a unique CD4+ T-cell clone (PM1): failure to downregulate CD4 and to interfere with cell-line-tropic HIV-1
1 Jun 1995
Abstract excerpt
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates derived directly from clinical samples are usually unable to grow in cytokine-independent continuous cell lines, thus hindering the study of their biological features and their sensitivity to humoral and cellular protective immunity. To overcome these limitations, we have derived from the Hut78 T-cell line a CD4+ clone (PM1) characterized by a unique...
