Journal ArticleDOI

Cryopreservation and long‐term liquid nitrogen storage of peripheral blood mononuclear cells for flow cytometry analysis effects on cell subset proportions and fluorescence intensity

L. Morris Brown, +6 more
- 01 Jan 1991 - 
TL;DR: Cryopreservation is a valuable technique for longterm storage of viable cells and for clinical and epidemiological investigations encompassing large numbers of samples, statistical techniques to adjust for small changes during storage should be considered.
Journal Article

HTLV-I serostatus of mothers of patients with adult T-cell leukemia and HTLV-I-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis.

Courtenay Bartholomew, +6 more
- 01 May 1998 - 
TL;DR: This study confirms that infection with HTLV-I in early childhood can lead to ATL in later life, and that HAM/TSP can also result from early infection but more commonly results from infection acquired in adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI

C-terminal fragments of gp120 and synthetic peptides from five HTLV-III strains: prevalence of antibodies to the HTLV-III-MN isolate in infected individuals.

Yair Devash, +7 more
- 01 Mar 1990 - 
TL;DR: Patients' sera cross reactivity to multiple strains of the principal neutralizing domain may reflect the antigenic relatedness of the virus isolates rather than multiple infection events or strains generated during disease progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trends in antiretroviral therapy and mother-infant transmission of HIV. The Women and Infants Transmission Study Group.

Ellen R. Cooper, +4 more
- 01 May 2000 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, trends in the vertical transmission rate of HIV and evolving antiretroviral usage between 1990 and 1998 within the Women and Infants Transmission Study were evaluated, and a decline in mother-infant transmission was temporally associated with advances in therapy, especially when regimens including a protease inhibitor.
Journal Article

Detection of both mutant and wild-type p53 protein in normal skin fibroblasts and demonstration of a shared 'second hit' on p53 in diverse tumors from a cancer-prone family with Li-Fraumeni syndrome.

Shiv Srivastava, +8 more
- 01 May 1992 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that normal skin fibroblasts derived from members of a family with Li-Fraumeni syndrome express mutant p53Gly----Asp(245) protein and RNA at levels similar to the wild-type p53, which further support the notion that germline p53 mutation plays a key role in the tumorigenesis of individuals withLi-Fraumei syndrome.
