The highly pathogenic simian immunodeficiency virus/HIV type 1 (SHIV) chimeric virus SHIV(DH12R) induces a systemic depletion of CD4(+) T lymphocytes in rhesus monkeys during the initial 3-4 weeks of infection. Nonetheless, high levels of viral RNA production continue unabated for

Acyclic derivatives of adenine, known as highly effective nucleotide analogs with broad spectrum antiviral activity, were evaluated for potential cross-reactivity with adenylyl cyclases, a family of membrane-bound enzymes that share putative topologies at their catalytic sites with oligonucleotide polymerases and

The fatal disease induced by SIVsmmPBj4 clinically resembles endotoxic shock, with the development of severe gastrointestinal disease. While the exact mechanism of disease induction has not been fully elucidated, aspects of virus biology suggest that immune activation contributes to pathogenesis.

Sensitization to cocaine has been attributed to alterations in excitatory amino acid and dopamine neurotransmission in the mesolimbic system. The present study sought to determine whether inhibition of NAALADase, an enzyme that cleaves glutamate from the endogenous neuropeptide, N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate (NAAG)
Immunoassay detection of O-pinacolyl methylphosphonic acid (PMPA) employing direct coating of N-2-aminoethyl-O-pinacolyl methylphosphonate (hapten B) on microtiter plates is reported. Coating was achieved by covalently linking hapten B to a glutaraldehyde (GA) polymer network directly bound to the polystyrene (PS)
