Characterization of envelope and core structural gene products of HTLV-III with sera from AIDS patients

TL;DR: The techniques in this study can be used to define the extent of variability of the env gene product among different virus isolates and may identify the nature and patterns of the humoral immune response that lead to an immunologically protected state.

Prevention of HIV-2 and SIVsm infection by passive immunization in cynomolgus monkeys.

TL;DR: This paper showed that passively transferred antibodies can protect against a low-dose lentivirus challenge in a nonhuman primate against SIVsm infection in a cage of cynomolgus monkeys.

Mouse leukemia: therapy with monoclonal antibodies against a thymus differentiation antigen.

TL;DR: Monoclonal antibodies against a thymus cell differentiation antigen (Thy-1.1) were effective in the therapy of a transplanted mouse leukemia and resulted in the cure of leukemia in a significant proportion of the treated animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shedding and interspecies type sero-reactivity of the envelope glycopolypeptide gp120 of the human immunodeficiency virus.

TL;DR: Two glycopolypeptides with molecular weights 160,000 and 120,000 (gp120) are regularly recognized by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-specific antisera in lysates of cells persistently infected with HIV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nucleotide sequence of the envelope gene of Friend murine leukemia virus.

TL;DR: It is suggested that this rigid and highly variable region of gp70 participates in infection by recognition of cell surface receptors and, in addition, might contribute to the different oncogenic spectra of murine leukemia viruses.

Properties of mouse leukemia viruses. VIII. The major viral glycoprotein of Friend leukemia virus. Seroimmunological, interfering and hemagglutinating capacities.

TL;DR: The purified major glycoprotein (GP 71) of Friend leukemia virus revealed type-specific as well as species-specific and interspecies antigenicities in various types of seroimmunological tests.

Properties of mouse leukemia viruses: VII. The major viral glycoprotein of Friend leukemia virus. Isolation and physicochemical properties

TL;DR: The major viral glycoprotein of Friend leukemia virus was isolated by a procedure comprising density gradient centrifugation, Con A affinity chromatography, and Sephadex gel filtration and found to be pure by physicochemical and seroimmunological methods.

Influence of Immunologic Hyperstimulation on Murine Viral Leukemogenesis

TL;DR: Mice inoculated with Rauscher leukemogenic virus, following a series of weekly injections of complete Freund’s adjuvant in combination with virus-unrelated antigens, showed increased survivals and delayed appearances of circulating nucleated erythrocytes characteristic of the leukemia.
