Journal ArticleDOI

A chimeric simian/human immunodeficiency virus expressing a primary patient human immunodeficiency virus type 1 isolate env causes an AIDS-like disease after in vivo passage in rhesus monkeys.

TL;DR: It is shown that after two serial in vivo passages by intravenous blood inoculation of naive rhesus monkeys, this SHIV (SHIV-89.6P) induced CD4 lymphopenia and an AIDS-like disease with wasting and opportunistic infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two Orphan Seven-Transmembrane Segment Receptors Which Are Expressed in CD4-positive Cells Support Simian Immunodeficiency Virus Infection

TL;DR: Two orphan seven-transmembrane segment receptors, gpr1 and gpr15, serve as coreceptors for SIV, and are expressed in human alveolar macrophages, and may contribute to an understanding of viral variation and pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of molecularly cloned simian-human immunodeficiency viruses causing rapid CD4+ lymphocyte depletion in rhesus monkeys.

TL;DR: The availability of pathogenic proviral clones should facilitate dissection of the molecular determinants of SHIV-89.6P virulence, and the molecular changes responsible for this increase in virulence were characterized.
