Journal ArticleDOI
HIV protease inhibitor nelfinavir inhibits replication of SARS-associated coronavirus.
Norio Yamamoto,Rongge Yang,Yoshiyuki Yoshinaka,Shinji Amari,Tatsuya Nakano,Jindrich Cinatl,Holger F. Rabenau,Hans Wilhelm Doerr,Gerhard Hunsmann,Akira Otaka,Hirokazu Tamamura,Nobutaka Fujii,Naoki Yamamoto +12 more
TL;DR: Nelfinavir strongly inhibited replication of the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and has potential as a good lead compound for designing anti-SARS drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of PCR amplified DNA sequencing with the aid of detergents.
TL;DR: The highest intensity of the signals and the lowest background at specific positions were found in the sequences obtained with NP40 or with the combination of NP40 and Tween 20, presumably due to the prevention of secondary structure formation and the suppression of DNA-annealing by detergents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid infection of oral mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue with simian immunodeficiency virus.
Christiane Stahl-Hennig,Ralph M. Steinman,Klara Tenner-Racz,Melissa Pope,Nicole Stolte,Kerstin Mätz-Rensing,Gudrun Grobschupff,Birgit Raschdorff,Gerhard Hunsmann,Paul Racz +9 more
TL;DR: Analyses by virologic assays and in situ hybridization revealed that the infection started locally in the tonsils, a mucosal-associated lymphoid organ, and quickly spread to other lymphoid tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association between fulminant hepatic failure and a strain of GBV virus C
Stefan Heringlake,Stefan Heringlake,Sabine Osterkamp,Sabine Osterkamp,Christian Trautwein,Hans L. Tillmann,Klaus Böker,A. Scott Muerhoff,Isah K Mushahwar,Gerhard Hunsmann,Michael P. Manns +10 more
TL;DR: The frequency of GBV-C RNA is higher in fulminan hepatic failure than in any other group of patients with hepatitis, particularly in patients with fulminant hepatitis B or fulminants non-A-E hepatitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of serum antibodies to adult T‐cell leukemia virus in non‐human primates and in people from Africa
TL;DR: The distribution of serum antibodies to adult T‐cell leukemia virus (ATLV) was examined as a marker for virus infection among non‐human primates as well as people from Africa and Germany.
