115 8002030 Independent measures of autoantibodies to Ro/SS-A and La/SS-B remained undetectable.
116 8013961 The synthetic peptide antigen (Ag) (the primary structure Tyr-Leu-Lys-Asp-Gln-Gln-Leu-Leu-Gly-Ile-Trp-Gly-Cys-Ser-Gly-Lys-Leu-Ile- Cys-Thr derived from the envelope glycoprotein gp41 of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and exerting specificity with all HIV-1-positive sera available in the Czech Republic (and also in a panel of 10,000 sera from WHO)) was conjugated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and encapsulated into liposomes.
117 8016092 In this study, a human CD4+ T lymphocyte line was transduced to secrete Fab fragments of a broadly neutralizing human monoclonal antibody F105 that reacts with the CD4-binding site of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope protein.

125 8097759 An HIV-1 envelope protein vaccine elicits a functionally complex human CD4+ T cell response that includes cytolytic T lymphocytes.
126 8097759 Antibody blocking and single cell cloning experiments demonstrated that the vaccine-induced cytolytic activity was mediated by CD4+, MHC class II-restricted T cells.
127 8097759 Longitudinal and cross-sectional studies revealed that the CD4+ CTL response was regulated in a complex manner and was not clearly correlated with MHC class II genotype, Ag dose, or number of immunizations.
128 8097759 Analysis of cytokine secretion by gp160-specific CD4+ T cell clones revealed Th0-, Th1-, and Th2-like patterns, with CD4+ CTL clones showing Th0- or T'1-like patterns.
129 8097759 Interestingly, many Th0- and Th1-like CTL clones produced very little IL-2, a finding that may explain the complicated regulation of this response.
130 8178557 The interaction of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein gp120 with CD4 CDR3-related peptide derivatives showing anti-HIV-1 activity has been studied.
131 8178557 Conformational changes in gp120, which could affect its interaction with CD4 and its shedding from virions, were detected by fluorescence spectrum analysis of tryptophan residues after addition of peptide representative of the CD4 CDR3-related region, but not the CD4 CDR2-related region.

136 8470333 Immunohistochemical analysis with monoclonal antibodies demonstrated that the lymphocytic infiltrates consisted mainly of CD8+ T cells (53.7-55.8% at 48 hours post-challenge of BLV), CD4+ T cells (24.7-26.7%), and B cells (11.5-16.9%).
137 8470333 The role of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in suppressing BLV growth in RVV-vaccinated animals is discussed.
138 8515081 Peptide constructs comprised of multideterminant Th peptides from the envelope glycoprotein of HIV previously identified to induce proliferative responses in four different haplotypes of mice and IL-2 responses in 52 to 73% of HIV positive, Ag-responsive patients, were colinearly synthesized with the peptide 18 of the V3 loop of HIV-1 gp 160, corresponding to the principal neutralizing determinant of HIV-IIIB.
139 8578803 Immunization studies in rats showed that this protein was also less efficient in inducing antibodies against this antigenic site, and that it induced significantly lower levels of virus neutralizing antibodies than the other SIV-envelope glycoprotein.

150 8801439 The specific binding of the viral external envelope glycoprotein of HIV-1, gp120, to the CD4 molecules initiates viral entry.
151 8801439 In the past few years, several studies have indicated that the interaction of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein with cells and molecules of the immune system leads to pleiotropic biological effects on immune functions, which include effects on differentiation of CD34+ lymphoid progenitor cells and thymocytes, aberrant activation and cytokine secretion patterns of mature T cells, induction of apoptosis, B-cell hyperactivity, inhibition of T-cell dependent B-cell differentiation, modulation of macrophage functions, interactions with components of complement, and effects on neuronal cells.

155 8906815 We have observed and analyzed an unexpected cross-reactivity of CD8+ CTL between two nonhomologous peptides of the HIV-1 IIIB gp160 envelope protein, P18 (residues 315-329) and HP53 (834-848, also called TH4.1), in the context of four different class I MHC molecules, Dd, Dp, Dq (or Lq), and H-2u.
156 8906815 Cross-reactivity was also shown in immunization in vivo and with target cells endogenously expressing viral protein in vitro using two different recombinant vaccinia viruses expressing only the N-terminal portion of gp160, containing P18 but not HP53.
157 8906815 A comparison of these peptide sequences and recent data on residues of P18 interacting with H-2Dd provided us with clues to residues involved in the interaction of the CTL with the MHC-peptide complex.
158 8985336 Plasmid vectors encoding the major (S) or middle (pre-S2 plus S) envelope proteins of hepatitis B virus (HBV) were constructed and compared for their potential to induce hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-specific immune responses with a vector encoding the middle envelope and IL-2 fusion protein or with a bicistronic vector separately encoding the middle envelope protein and IL-2.

160 8985336 When restimulated with antigen in vitro, splenocytes from mice that received plasmids coexpressing IL-2 and the envelope protein produced much stronger T helper 1 (Th1)-like responses than did those from mice that had been given injections of plasmids encoding the envelope protein alone.

168 9091063 Lymphoproliferative response to synthetic V3 loop P18 peptide and HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein among individuals immunized with gp160 candidate vaccines.
169 9091063 Because T-cell responses are critical for defense against viral infections, the synthetic P18 peptide (RIQRGPGRAFVTIGK) and active component of gp160 protein has previously been shown to induce cytotoxic and helper T-lymphocyte responses.
170 9091063 We found a PBMC proliferative response to synthetic P18 peptide in healthy immunized individuals induced by gp160 antigen with or without vaccinia virus.
171 9091063 There was correlation between the proliferative response to P18 peptide and other antigens such as HIV-like proteins and gp160 molecule.
172 9158092 Expansion of restricted cellular immune responses to HIV-1 envelope by vaccination: IL-7 and IL-12 differentially augment cellular proliferative responses to HIV-1.
173 9158092 In a randomized cohort of HIV-infected patients, there was striking in vitro restriction of the proliferative response to HIV-1 envelope protein (Env), gp160; only 34% of patients recognized Env.
174 9158092 Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from HIV-infected vaccine recipients, placebo recipients, and seronegative volunteers were cultured with exogenous IL-7 or IL-12 and either tetanus toxoid (TT) or gp160.
175 9158092 IL-7 significantly augmented proliferative responses to TT and gp160, whereas IL-12 only affected proliferation to gp160.
176 9158092 Modification of restricted proliferative responses to Env by vaccination or cytokines in vitro suggests that strategies incorporating IL-7 or IL-12 as adjuvants may selectively boost cellular reactivity to HIV-1.
177 9178085 NMR study of the peptide present in the principal neutralizing determinant (PND) of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120.

182 9281853 Linear epitope mapping of humoral responses induced by vaccination with recombinant HIV-1 envelope protein gp160.
183 9342362 A challenge for subunit vaccines whose goal is to elicit CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) is to deliver the antigen to the cytosol of the living cell, where it can be processed for presentation by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules.
184 9342362 To test whether the lethal factor protein could be exploited for delivery of exogenous proteins to the MHC class I processing pathway, we constructed a genetic fusion between the amino-terminal 254 aa of LF and the gp120 portion of the HIV-1 envelope protein.
185 9380724 The T1 helper peptide from the HIV-1 envelope protein was made more immunogenic for inducing T cell proliferation to the native sequence by replacing a residue that exerts an adverse influence on peptide binding to an MHC class II molecule.

188 9525307 To apply IL-12 genes in gene therapy such as a DNA vaccine, a pIL-12 vector was constructed that contained two cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoters to drive the expression of p35 and p40 subunits, respectively.
189 9525307 In addition, a pscIL-12 vector was designed with a linker to fuse p35 cDNA with p40 cDNA to produce a single-chain IL-12 protein, ensuring not only that the expression of p35 and p40 subunits was equally expressed, but also that no free p40 subunits interfered with IL-12 activity.
190 9525307 Furthermore, in vivo functional studies also demonstrated that mice co-immunized with a pS vector expressing the major envelope protein of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and IL-12 vectors encoding native IL-12 or single-chain IL-12 fusion protein elicited higher levels of IgG2a anti-HBs antibody and of Th1-related cytokine.
191 9525307 Because p35 and p40 genes can be expressed in a vector by using a single promoter, pscIL-12 should be useful in future applications for nucleic acid vaccination or for gene therapy against diseases.
192 9546800 Immunoliposomes containing monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the costimulatory molecules CD28 and CTLA4 and their counterreceptors B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86) were evaluated for the ability to increase the immune response to recombinant envelope protein rgp120 of the MN strain of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) during vaccination.
193 9546800 The DTH response was not accompanied by increased production of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) or interleukin 4 (IL-4), implying that the primary cellular interaction was between the immunoliposomes and cells of the reticuloendothelial system and not helper T (Th) cells.
194 9568962 The humoral immune response to flaviviruses is mainly directed to the major envelope protein, E, and a glycosylated non-structural protein, NS1.
195 9568962 Experiments described here show that a defective recombinant adenovirus (Rad51) containing the gene encoding the NS1 protein of tick-borne encephalitis virus can induce a strong protective immune response against several pathogenic tick-borne flaviviruses in an experimental animal model, and can enhance the efficacy of conventional vaccine preparations.
196 9573260 The CTLs induced in BALB/c mice immunized twice with 100 microg of pcDNA3JEME were CD8 positive and recognized mainly the envelope protein.
197 9603313 The ORF5-encoded major envelope glycoprotein (GP5) of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is one of the three major structural proteins of this virus.
198 9603313 While some porcine convalescent sera and monoclonal antibodies directed against GP4 and GP5 have the capacity to neutralize the virus in vitro, the protein specificity of porcine neutralizing sera has not yet been established.
199 9603313 Peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from DNA-vaccinated pigs underwent blastogenic transformation in the presence of E. coli-expressed recombinant ORF5-encoded protein, indicating the specificity of the cellular immune response to GP5.

202 9684045 The objective of the present study was to evaluate the importance of genomic and antigenic variations which may have affected the major envelope glycoprotein GP5 of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) isolates responsible for outbreaks in Quebec and Ontario, in comparison with the modified-live U.S. vaccine strain (MLV) and the European prototype strain from Lelystad (LV).
203 9684045 The ORF5 encoded products of 5 of these isolates, including the MLV and LV strains, were expressed in E. coli as recombinant proteins fused to the glutathione S-transferase (GST) protein and used to raise hyperimmune anti-ORF5 sera in rabbits.
204 9684045 The reactivity patterns of strain-specific hyperimmune anti-ORF5 sera and a panel of 4 monoclonal antibodies directed against the ORF5 gene product of the Quebec IAF-Klop strain of PRRSV, indicated that GP5 of field isolates also underwent antigenic variations.
205 9686639 Cross-clade envelope glycoprotein 160-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses in early HIV type 1 clade B infection.
206 9686639 A major objective of current HIV-1 vaccination strategies is the induction of HIV-1-specific CD8+ MHC class I-restricted CTL responses, which are suggested to play a pivotal role in viral clearance and protection against HIV-1 disease progression.
207 9707171 Since initial infection depends on binding of the viral envelope protein gp120 to CD4 on the cell surface, the CD4 binding site of gp120 is a target for vaccine design.
208 9733870 Here we apply MVA to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) vaccine development by incorporating the envelope protein gp160 of HIV-1 primary isolate strain 89.6 (MVA 89.6) and use it to induce mucosal cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte (CTL) immunity.
209 9733870 Immunization with MVA 89.6 led to (i) the loading of antigen-presenting cells in vivo, as measured by the ex vivo active presentation of the P18-89.6 peptide to an antigen-specific CTL line, and (ii) the significant production of the proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha) in the mucosal sites.
210 9891969 We demonstrate here that liposomes that contain an immunodominant peptide (15 amino acids) of the envelope glycoprotein gp120 of HIV-1 and that are coated with mannopentaose-dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine conjugate induce a major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted CD8+ CTL response in mice with a single subcutaneous immunization, whereas non-coated liposomes do not.
211 9916724 We recently characterized two nonmutated tumor-associated Ags for the B16 murine melanoma: tyrosinase-related protein-2 (TRP-2) and the endogenous retroviral envelope protein, p15E.
212 10196334 CV-N also blocked HIV envelope glycoprotein Env-induced, CD4-dependent cell-cell fusion.
213 10196334 Mapping studies with monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to defined epitopes on the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein indicated that CV-N binds to gp120 in a manner that does not occlude or alter the CD4 binding site or V3 loop or other domains on gp120 recognized by defined MAbs and does not interfere with soluble CD4-induced conformational changes in gp120.
214 10196334 CV-N also blocked HIV envelope glycoprotein Env-induced, CD4-dependent cell-cell fusion.
215 10196334 Mapping studies with monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to defined epitopes on the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein indicated that CV-N binds to gp120 in a manner that does not occlude or alter the CD4 binding site or V3 loop or other domains on gp120 recognized by defined MAbs and does not interfere with soluble CD4-induced conformational changes in gp120.
216 10366577 The HCV hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) of the main E2 envelope protein is critically important in HCV neutralization but its extreme variability makes immune therapy and vaccine development particularly difficult.

222 10501160 Intramuscular injection with DNA encoding the EHV-1 envelope glycoprotein D (gD) in a mammalian expression vector induced a specific antibody response detectable by two weeks and maintained through 23 weeks post injection.
223 10559329 Several inbred and outbred mouse strains immunized with a plasmid (pE) encoding the JEV envelope protein elicited a high level of protection against a lethal JEV challenge similar to that achieved by the inactivated vaccine, whereas all the other genes tested, including those encoding the capsid protein and the nonstructural proteins NS1-2A, NS3, and NS5, were ineffective.
224 10559349 Although infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) typically requires an interaction between the viral envelope glycoprotein (Env), CD4, and a chemokine receptor, CD4-independent isolates of HIV and simian immunodeficiency virus have been described.
225 10559349 We have derived a variant of HIV-1/IIIB, termed IIIBx, that acquired the ability to utilize CXCR4 without CD4.
226 10559349 This virus infected CD4-negative T and B cells and fused with murine 3T3 cells that expressed human CXCR4 alone.
227 10559349 Remarkably, when the V3 loop of a CCR5-tropic Env was substituted for the IIIBx Env, the resulting chimera was found to utilize CCR5 but remained CD4 independent.

239 10800093 To evaluate this hypothesis, immune responses against HIV-1 envelope protein, gp160, an immunogenic HIV-1 component expressed under the control of the CMV promoter, were evaluated in BALB/c mice with or without stimulation by 8 Br-cAMP.
240 10800093 Moreover, it induced increased production of interferon-gamma with reduction in IL-4 synthesis, and decreased the ratio of serum IgG1/IgG2a.
241 10823869 In the WT infected cells, C proteins appeared to colocalize almost perfectly with the matrix (M) proteins, pretty well with an external envelope glycoprotein (hemagglutinin-neuraminidase [HN]), and very poorly with the internal P protein.
242 10856788 Three-day-old ducklings were immunized with either a plasmid encoding the DHBV pre-S/S large envelope protein (L), or a recombinant preS protein, followed by sequential DNA or protein boosts at weeks 4 and 15.
243 10888628 The HCV envelope glycoprotein E2 has recently been shown to bind CD81 on human cells and therefore is a prime candidate for inclusion in any such vaccine.
244 10888628 The quality of recombinant E2 protein was evaluated by both the capacity to bind its putative receptor CD81 on human cells and the ability to elicit antibodies that inhibited this binding (NOB antibodies).
245 10888628 Together, our data suggest that to elicit antibodies aimed at blocking HCV binding to CD81 on human cells, the antigen of choice is a mammalian cell-expressed, monomeric E2 protein purified from the intracellular fraction.
246 10888933 Immunohistochemistry of the skin showed CD1a-positive DCs double-labeled with an antibody against DV envelope glycoprotein.
247 10889596 The process of HIV entry begins with binding of the viral envelope glycoprotein to both the CD4 receptor and one of several chemokine receptors and ends with fusion of viral and cell membranes.
248 10889596 Conceptually, there are 3 steps in the HIV entry process that could serve as therapeutic targets: binding of the viral envelope glycoprotein with the CD4 receptor, binding of the envelope-CD4 complex to chemokine receptors, and fusion of the viral and cell membranes.
249 10889596 The process of HIV entry begins with binding of the viral envelope glycoprotein to both the CD4 receptor and one of several chemokine receptors and ends with fusion of viral and cell membranes.
250 10889596 Conceptually, there are 3 steps in the HIV entry process that could serve as therapeutic targets: binding of the viral envelope glycoprotein with the CD4 receptor, binding of the envelope-CD4 complex to chemokine receptors, and fusion of the viral and cell membranes.
251 10893147 The major structural proteins consist of a 25 kDa envelope glycoprotein (GP5), an 18-19 kDa unglycosylated membrane protein (M), and a 15 kDa nucleocapsid (N) protein, encoded by ORFs 5, 6 and 7, respectively.
252 10893147 The expression products of ORFs 2 and 4 are also incorporated into virus particles as additional minor membrane-associated glycoproteins designated as GP2 and GP4, with M(r) of 29 and 31 kDa, respectively.
253 10926931 We expressed trimeric envelope glycoprotein from three primary, macrophage tropic HIV-1 isolates in baby hamster kidney cells and analyzed the furin-mediated cleavage, stability, and receptor binding properties of the oligomers.
254 10926931 Secreted uncleaved gp140 trimers were purified to homogeneity and analyzed for their capacity to interact with cellular receptors CD4 and CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5).
255 10926931 Receptor binding was analyzed on CD4- and CCR5-expressing cells as well as on peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
256 10926931 In conclusion, our results show that the cleaved form of the envelope glycoprotein does not form stable trimers, suggesting that gp120/gp41 oligomers on the virion surface might be stabilized by a yet to be identified mechanism and that the virion might attach to CD4 via a monomeric form of gp120.
257 10926931 We expressed trimeric envelope glycoprotein from three primary, macrophage tropic HIV-1 isolates in baby hamster kidney cells and analyzed the furin-mediated cleavage, stability, and receptor binding properties of the oligomers.
258 10926931 Secreted uncleaved gp140 trimers were purified to homogeneity and analyzed for their capacity to interact with cellular receptors CD4 and CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5).
259 10926931 Receptor binding was analyzed on CD4- and CCR5-expressing cells as well as on peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
260 10926931 In conclusion, our results show that the cleaved form of the envelope glycoprotein does not form stable trimers, suggesting that gp120/gp41 oligomers on the virion surface might be stabilized by a yet to be identified mechanism and that the virion might attach to CD4 via a monomeric form of gp120.
261 10946425 The highest heterogeneity has been found in the hypervariable region of the envelope glycoprotein 2, which contains a principal neutralization epitope.
262 11027808 Chimeric classical swine fever viruses containing envelope protein E(RNS) or E2 of bovine viral diarrhoea virus protect pigs against challenge with CSFV and induce a distinguishable antibody response.
263 11090138 The infection of CD4(+) host cells by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is initiated by a temporal progression of interactions between specific cell surface receptors and the viral envelope protein, gp120.
264 11166906 The vCP205 vaccine induced secretion of the Th1 cytokine, interferon-gamma, by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) after in vitro stimulation with HIV-1 p24 and envelope glycoprotein.
265 11230402 Because the peptide is a fragment of the E(rns) protein, it can be used to differentiate between infected and vaccinated animals when a vaccine based on the E2 protein, which is another pestivirus envelope protein, is used.
266 11230750 The hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) of the putative envelope protein E2 of hepatitis C virus (HCV) contains a principal neutralization epitope, and anti-HVR1 antibodies have been shown to possess protective activity in ex vivo neutralization experiments.
267 11305358 Use of human CD4 transgenic mice for studying immunogenicity of HIV-1 envelope protein gp120.
268 11312623 Here we describe the properties of a DC-specific C-type lectin, DC-SIGN, that is highly expressed on DC present in mucosal tissues and binds to the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120.
269 11312623 DC-SIGN does not function as a receptor for viral entry into DC, but instead promotes efficient infection in trans of cells that express CD4 and chemokine receptors.
270 11359364 This state is due to the binding of HIV envelope glycoprotein moieties to CD4 molecules and chemokine receptors.
271 11359364 This effect is exemplified by diminished production of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-gamma and reduced expression of IL-2 receptor by CD4 helper cells of HIV patients.
272 11431420 The ability of cytokines to steer CD4(+) T(h) cell responses toward a T(h)1 or T(h)2 phenotype and enhance the magnitude of both CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and antibody responses has clearly been demonstrated by our lab and others, but the influence of cytokines on protective immune responses is much less clear.
273 11431420 Here we show an essential role for CD4(+) T(h)1 helper cell induction and IFN-gamma production in protection from viral challenge with a recombinant vaccinia virus expressing HIV-1MN viral envelope glycoprotein gp160.
274 11431420 Complete protection from viral challenge is achieved only when the triple combination of exogenous cytokines granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), IL-12 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha are co-administered with the peptide vaccine.
275 11431420 In vivo depletion of CD4(+) cells or immunization of IFN-gamma-deficient mice abrogates protection.
276 11431420 GM-CSF, IL-12 and TNF-alpha also synergize for the enhanced induction of CTL; however, adoptive transfer of a CD8(+) CTL line afforded only partial protection in this viral challenge model.
277 11431420 We further demonstrate synergy between IL-12 and the proinflammatory cytokine TNF-alpha in driving IFN-gamma production.
278 11431420 Thus, a combination of IL-12 and TNF-alpha is essential for the optimal development of T(h)1 responses and help for CTL induction in BALB/c mice, and is complemented by a third cytokine, GM-CSF, which enhances antigen presentation.
279 11522187 Coadministration of SF-2 rgp120 vaccine with vCP205 vaccine enhanced lymphocyte proliferation in response to HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein and broadened the envelope-stimulated cytokine secretion pattern, so that it consisted of both Th1 and Th2 cytokines compared with only interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) after vCP205 vaccine given alone.
280 11522187 There was a possible association between HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein-stimulated interleukin 2 secretion and CD8(+) CTLs against HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein, and an inverse relation between lymphocyte proliferation and CTLs against HIV-1 Gag antigens.
281 11522187 Coadministration of SF-2 rgp120 vaccine with vCP205 vaccine enhanced lymphocyte proliferation in response to HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein and broadened the envelope-stimulated cytokine secretion pattern, so that it consisted of both Th1 and Th2 cytokines compared with only interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) after vCP205 vaccine given alone.
282 11522187 There was a possible association between HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein-stimulated interleukin 2 secretion and CD8(+) CTLs against HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein, and an inverse relation between lymphocyte proliferation and CTLs against HIV-1 Gag antigens.
283 11562534 Pretreatment of UV-HCMV with trypsin or monoclonal antibody reactive with the envelope glycoprotein gB reduced the increase in HLA class I expression on the HFF cell surface by UV-HCMV.
284 11574173 To explore the possible mechanism of the emergence of acute PRRS, the open reading frame 5 (ORF5) gene encoding the major envelope protein (GP5) of acute PRRSV isolates was characterized.
285 11591745 HIV envelope protein inhibits MHC class I presentation of a cytomegalovirus protective epitope.
286 11591745 CTL recognize peptides that derive from viral protein Ags by proteolytic processing and are presented by MHC class I molecules.
287 11591745 Also, point mutants of the presenting MHC class I molecule differed in their competition pattern.
288 11591745 We conclude that, although not the rule, in certain combinations there is interference between different Ags expressed in the same cell and presented by the same MHC class I allele.
289 11602749 Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) fusion and entry involves sequential interactions between the viral envelope protein, gp120, cell surface CD4, and a G-protein-coupled coreceptor.
290 11602749 In this study, we examined the disposition of these features during the fusion of HeLa cells expressing either HIV(HXB2) envelope (Env cells) or CXCR4 and CD4 (target cells).
291 11602749 Analyses of cells arrested by cooling to 4( degrees )C revealed that antibodies against the CD4-induced coreceptor-binding domain, i.e., 17b, 48d, and CG10, faintly react with Env cells even in the absence of target cell or soluble CD4 (sCD4) interactions.
292 11711631 Frequent mutations in hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) of the main envelope protein of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major mechanism of persistence by escaping the host immune recognition.
293 11858863 Protective efficacy of a plasmid DNA encoding Japanese encephalitis virus envelope protein fused to tissue plasminogen activator signal sequences: studies in a murine intracerebral virus challenge model.
294 11858863 We report the construction of chimeric DNA vaccine vectors in which secretory signal sequence derived from tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) was fused to the full length (pCMVTE) or 398 amino terminal amino acids (pCMVTdeltaE) of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) envelope (E) protein.
295 11858867 The varicella-zoster virus (VZV) envelope glycoprotein E (gE) and immediate early protein 63 (IE63) are well known targets for specific humoral and cell-mediated immune responses during VZV infection and latency, respectively.
296 11932387 It was demonstrated that vaccines expressing the DeltaV3 mutant of either HIV-1(IIIB) or HIV-1(89.6) envelope glycoprotein induced broader CD8(+) T-cell activities than those elicited by the wild-type (WT) counterparts.
297 11983249 The minimal envelope glycoprotein region that specifies this increase in membrane-fusing capacity was sufficient to convert SHIV-89.6 into a virus that causes profound CD4(+) T-cell depletion in monkeys.
298 11997472 HIV-1 entry into cells involves formation of a complex between gp120 of the viral envelope glycoprotein (Env), a receptor (CD4), and a coreceptor, typically CCR5.
299 12034093 A synthetic peptide immunogen designated the multiple epitope immunogen (MEI), based on the principle neutralizing domain (PND) of the third variable region (V3) of the HIV-1 subtype C surface envelope protein was prepared by combining two different modes of synthesis [Vaccine 12 (8) (1994) 736; AIDS Res.
300 12036323 First, we have identified two CD8 T cell epitopes and one CD4 T cell epitope.
301 12036323 An H-2Kb-restricted dominant epitope was mapped in the NS3 protein, whereas the viral envelope protein harbored an H-2Db-restricted subdominant epitope and the I-Ab-restricted CD4 T cell epitope.
302 12072535 By contrast, these viruses are unchanged in their sensitivities to soluble CD4, the CXCR4 coreceptor ligand SDF-1alpha, and human anti-HIV immunoglobulin, reagents that impact the initial, receptor-induced conformational changes in the envelope glycoprotein.
303 12192089 These results suggest that covalently crosslinked complexes of the HIV-1 surface envelope glycoprotein and CD4 elicit broadly neutralizing humoral responses that, in part, may be directed against a novel epitope(s) found on the HIV-1 envelope.
304 12390542 To better understand the epitope-specificity of CD4+ Th repertoire to the envelope glycoprotein (Env) of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), we analyzed Th responses to 20-mer overlapping Env peptides in eight genetically heterogeneous macaques chronically infected with live attenuated SIV.
305 12393660 Autologous and MHC class I-negative allogeneic tumor cells secreting IL-12 together cure disseminated A20 lymphoma.
306 12393660 Here, we show that allogeneic B78H1 major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-negative and -positive (H-2K(b)- and D(b)-transfected) cells induced cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and protection in BALB/c mice at comparable levels in response to a challenge with C26 (H-2(d)) colon carcinoma cells sharing the tumor-associated antigen envelope glycoprotein 70 (env-gp70) with both cell lines.
307 12393660 Indeed, only CD4(+) T cells from IL-12-treated mice could be restimulated with anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody (mAb) in place of a fourth cellular boost.
308 12393660 Moreover, the IL-12-based tumor vaccine induced expansion of tumor-specific interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)-producing CD8(+) T cells.
309 12457978 We constructed a recombinant virus MVA/EK5, which has a chimeric gene encoding for the extracellular domain of the HIV envelope protein fused to the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domain of the B5R protein of vaccinia virus.
310 12462149 Subsequent interaction of the envelope protein (Env) with the CD4 receptor causes conformational changes that enable Env to interact with a coreceptor, generally the chemokine receptors CCR5 or CXCR4.
311 12469944 Degradation of Q. saponins resulted in some reduction of their capacity to elicit IgG1, IgG2a and IgG2b isotypes against the highly immunogenic envelope glycoprotein D (gD) from herpes simplex virus, type 1 (HSV-1).
312 12486032 We find that although 5-Helix binds poorly to native gp41, it binds strongly to gp41 activated by interaction of the envelope protein with either soluble CD4 or membrane-bound cellular receptors.
313 12513927 Animals received four injections of recombinant porcine IL-1 and IL-6, IL-12 alone, or CT alone within 1 week of intramuscular administration of a vaccine strain of PRRSV, Ingelvac MLV.
314 12513927 Second, animals that received CT adjuvant displayed a more robust antibody response to GP5, the major envelope glycoprotein.
315 12513927 It acts in part through the production of IL-1 in macrophages, but its effect was not replaced by combination treatment with IL-1 and IL-6.
316 12519209 SIV-specific immune responses, including IgG and IgA binding antibodies in sera and mucosal secretions, IgG and IgA secreting cells in peripheral blood, IgG neutralizing antibodies, T-cell proliferative responses, and interferon-gamma secretion by peripheral blood mononuclear cells, were evaluated pre- and post-surgery in macaques immunized with adenovirus-SIV recombinant vaccines and SIV envelope protein and in SIV-infected macaques.
317 12525600 Using intact envelope glycoprotein (Env) under fusogenic conditions, we show that the N-HR peptide preferentially binds receptor-activated Env and that CD4 binding is sufficient for triggering conformational changes that allow the peptide to bind Env, results similar to those seen with the C-HR peptide.
318 12531355 We observed that HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein immunization of peptide primed mice induces a cross-reactive cellular response, as detected by cytokine secretion, which lends to IFN-gamma production upon splenocyte stimulation and CTL activity against recombinant vaccinia virus infected cells after in vitro stimulation.
319 12531355 DNA immunization with mimotope, inclusion of a T-cell epitope from the HIV-1 envelope protein in the expression cassette and co-administration with IL-12 or GM-CSF encoding plasmids activate a cellular response to the HIV-1 envelope protein.
320 12531355 We observed that HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein immunization of peptide primed mice induces a cross-reactive cellular response, as detected by cytokine secretion, which lends to IFN-gamma production upon splenocyte stimulation and CTL activity against recombinant vaccinia virus infected cells after in vitro stimulation.
321 12531355 DNA immunization with mimotope, inclusion of a T-cell epitope from the HIV-1 envelope protein in the expression cassette and co-administration with IL-12 or GM-CSF encoding plasmids activate a cellular response to the HIV-1 envelope protein.
322 12595891 The envelope protein was correctly processed and functional, mediating syncytia formation of Ad7deltaE1deltaE3HIV(MN) env/rev-infected cells and CD4(+) T lymphocytes.
323 12706709 Dengue 2 PreM-E/LAMP chimera targeted to the MHC class II compartment elicits long-lasting neutralizing antibodies.
324 12706709 A dengue 2 plasmid DNA vaccine (pD2) expressing the pre-membrane and envelope proteins (preM-E) was modified by replacing the dengue transmembrane and cytoplasmic sequences with those of the mouse lysosome-associated membrane protein (pD2/LAMP).
325 12706709 Immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy of human 293, NIH 3T3, and macrophage IC21 cell lines transfected with pD2/LAMP showed that the preM-E/LAMP protein chimera was present in vesicles containing endogenous LAMP and major histocompatability complex class II (MHC II), in contrast to the non-vesicular localization of native preM-E protein lacking the LAMP targeting sequence.
326 12706709 In contrast, vaccination with pD2/LAMP resulted in PRNT(50) of 270, 320 and 160 at approximately 1, 3 and 8 months after two immunizations with 50 microg DNA, and approached 100% neutralization at 1:20 dilution.
327 12706709 Additional immunization with pD2/LAMP, after 8 months, increased the neutralizing antibody titers to >640.
328 12706709 The neutralizing responses to the pD2/LAMP chimera were greatly superior to those elicited by pD2 in all conditions.
329 12706709 These results underscore the importance of MHC class II presentation of DNA-encoded dengue-virus envelope protein for production of neutralizing antibodies.
330 12802503 The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger was transformed with the hepatitis B virus S gene encoding the major viral envelope protein under control of the constitutive A. nidulans glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase ( gpdA) promoter.
331 12960237 Therapeutic agents that interfere with the binding of the HIV envelope glycoprotein gp120 to the CD4 receptor (e.g., PRO 542, PRO 2000, and CV-N) or the coreceptors CCR5 and CXCR4 (e.g., SCH-C and AMD3100) are briefly outlined in this review.
332 14505091 The envelope glycoprotein 2 (gp2) of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) has no known homologue in other herpesviruses with the exception of some equid alphaherpesviruses.
333 14583622 The HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp160 induces a strong specific CTL response restricted by several human and murine MHC class I molecules, including H-2Dd.
334 14614267 The ORF5 gene encodes a major envelope glycoprotein (GP5), which is one of the three major proteins of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV).
335 14614267 The GP5 protein has been known to be a 24.5-26 kDa N-glycosylated envelope protein.
336 14614267 To produce the native form of GP5 in mammalian cells, we have cloned the ORF5 gene from PRRSV CNV-1 into the Semliki Forest virus (SFV)-based expression vector, resulting in recombinant pSFV-ORF5.

340 14628286 Some novel approaches being taken include increasing cytotoxic T-lymphocyte responses, induction of immune responses in mucosal tissue surfaces, peptide-based vaccines, oligomeric envelope protein-based vaccine regimens, recombinant Tat protein vaccines, natural killer T-cell (NKT) ligand serving as adjuvant, and fusion of SIV gag with the extracellular domain of CTLA-4 as adjuvant.
341 14688363 IL-23 induces stronger sustained CTL and Th1 immune responses than IL-12 in hepatitis C virus envelope protein 2 DNA immunization.
342 14688363 In this study, we investigated whether IL-23 could influence envelope protein 2 (E2)-specific cell-mediated immunity induced by immunization of hepatitis C virus E2 DNA.
343 14688363 Interestingly, IL-23N220L, an N-glycosylation mutant showing reduced expression of excess p40 without changing the level of IL-23, exhibited a higher ratio of IFN-gamma- to IL-4-producing CD4(+) T cell frequency than did wild-type IL-23, suggesting a negative regulatory effect of p40 on Th1-prone immune response induced by IL-23.
344 14688363 IL-23 induces stronger sustained CTL and Th1 immune responses than IL-12 in hepatitis C virus envelope protein 2 DNA immunization.
345 14688363 In this study, we investigated whether IL-23 could influence envelope protein 2 (E2)-specific cell-mediated immunity induced by immunization of hepatitis C virus E2 DNA.
346 14688363 Interestingly, IL-23N220L, an N-glycosylation mutant showing reduced expression of excess p40 without changing the level of IL-23, exhibited a higher ratio of IFN-gamma- to IL-4-producing CD4(+) T cell frequency than did wild-type IL-23, suggesting a negative regulatory effect of p40 on Th1-prone immune response induced by IL-23.
347 14689280 The selected peptide was the so-called R9 mimotope, a synthetic surrogate derived from a consensus profile of many hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) sequences of the putative HCV envelope protein E2.
348 14967493 VLPs incorporated significant levels of mature gp120 envelope glycoprotein.
349 15003872 The potential of vaccine-elicited anti-HIV envelope antibodies to control HIV-infection was evaluated by immunizing macaques with the HIV envelope protein and transiently depleting them of their CD8+ cells before intravenous challenge with the pathogenic CCR5-tropic SIV/HIV chimeric virus, SHIV(SF162P4).
350 15051384 We have used an infectious cDNA clone of equine arteritis virus (EAV) and reverse genetics technology to further characterize the neutralization determinants in the GP5 envelope glycoprotein of the virus.
351 15110403 Recently, we reported the expression and production of different parts of p67 as fusions to either GFP or to the baculovirus GP64 envelope glycoprotein in insect cells, which resulted in stable proteins recognized by a monoclonal specific for native p67.
352 15245749 These include the demonstration that the gene encoding 2'-5'oligoadenylate synthetase is responsible for murine susceptibility to WN virus, the elucidation of the contributions of B, CD8(+) and gamma T cells in the control of murine WN virus infection, and the use of active immunization with envelope protein and passive transfer of immunoglobulin for immunotherapy.
353 15326293 Enhanced SIV replication and accelerated progression to AIDS in macaques primed to mount a CD4 T cell response to the SIV envelope protein.
354 15326293 Given the dual role of CD4 T cells as both immune effectors and targets for HIV infection, the balance of CD4 versus CD8 T cell-mediated responses induced by candidate AIDS vaccines may be critical in determining postvaccination infection outcomes.
355 15326293 Thus activation of virus-specific CD4 T cells at the time of exposure to a CD4 T cell-tropic lentivirus, in the absence of an effective CD8 response, may enhance virus replication and disease.
356 15331695 Compared to mice immunized with SHIV VLPs alone, mice coimmunized with SHIV VLPs and inactivated influenza virus showed significant increases in serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) and mucosal IgA antibodies specific to the human immunodeficiency virus envelope protein, neutralizing activities, numbers of gamma interferon- and interleukin 4-secreting lymphocytes, and cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte activities.
357 15368299 As the human tetraspanin CD81 binds hepatitis C virus (HCV) envelope glycoprotein E2, we addressed the role CD81 may play in cellular trafficking of HCV envelope proteins.

360 15539149 We identified a conserved caveolin-1 binding motif in the HIV-1 transmembrane envelope glycoprotein gp41 and designed several synthetic peptides, referred to as CBD1, corresponding to the consensus caveolin-1 binding domain in gp41.
361 15544707 Proteomics computational analyses indicate that the carboxyl terminal glycoprotein (Gc) encoded by Sandfly fever virus (SAN), a phlebovirus, has a significant amino acid sequence similarity with envelope protein 1 (E1), the class II fusion protein of Sindbis virus (SIN), an Alphavirus.
362 15797474 The envelope glycoprotein D of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1 gD) has been shown in laboratory animal models to elicit protective immune responses against EHV-1 challenge, and hence is a potential vaccine antigen.
363 15817945 The complex nature of HIV envelope glycoprotein that is inherently resistant to neutralization, the selective infection, progressive destruction and impaired regeneration of CD4+ T helper cells, generation of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) escape mutants, together with high genetic diversity with continually evolving HIV variants worldwide, makes design of an effective vaccine a formidable task.
364 15821891 We evaluated the immunological properties of a chimeric Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), a plant virus engineered to express on its surface a synthetic peptide derived from many HVR1 sequences of the HCV envelope protein E2 (R9 mimotope).
365 15821891 Furthermore, in patients with chronic HCV infection, purified preparations of R9-CMV down-modulated the lymphocyte surface density of CD3 and CD8, and induced a significant release of interferon (IFN)-gamma, interleukin (IL)-12 p70 and IL-15 by lymphomonocyte cultures.
366 15821891 Finally, an R9 mimotope-specific CD8 T-cell response, as assessed by intracellular IFN-gamma production, was achieved in the majority of the patients studied.
367 15853728 The envelope protein of HIV-1, the sole target of neutralizing antibodies, is constantly changing due to mutations, B cell epitopes are masked by heavy glycosylation and the protein's structural unfolding upon binding to its CD4 receptor and chemokine co-receptors.

370 16195378 CD4:Q425 engagement does not interfere with CD4:HIV-1 gp120 envelope glycoprotein binding, but it blocks subsequent steps required for viral entry.
371 16248793 HIV-1 cell entry is mediated by sequential interactions of the envelope protein gp120 with the receptor CD4 and a coreceptor, usually CCR5 or CXCR4, depending on the individual virion.
372 16317673 There was a statistically significant inverse correlation between peak viral loads and envelope glycoprotein 2 (E2)-specific antibody responses at the time of challenge.
373 16317673 Interestingly, one vaccinee that had sterilizing immunity against slightly heterologous virus generated the highest level of E2-specific total and neutralizing antibody responses as well as strong NS3/NS5-specific T-cell proliferative responses.
374 16339892 The major envelope protein of HCV (HCV-E2) binds, with high affinity CD81, a tetraspanin expressed on several cell types.
375 16339892 Here, we show that engagement of CD81 on human B cells by a combination of HCV-E2 and an anti-CD81 mAb triggers the JNK pathway and leads to the preferential proliferation of the naïve (CD27-) B cell subset.
376 16425996 Asymptomatic, antiretroviral-treatment-naïve, HIV-1-infected patients with CD4(+) T-cell counts greater than 400/microl received multiple intramuscular injections of HIV-1 IIIB recombinant envelope glycoprotein (rgp160) vaccine or HIV-1 MN recombinant envelope glycoprotein (rgp120) vaccine (eight patients, referred to as the HIV-1 vaccinees) or placebo or hepatitis B vaccine (three patients, referred to as the controls).
377 16425996 In flow cytometric analyses of intracellular cytokines, T-cell receptor stimulation with an anti-CD3 antibody induced gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) expression by activated CD4(+) and CD8(+) lymphocytes at greater frequencies than did stimulation with recombinant envelope glycoprotein and p24 of HIV-1 (P < 0.05).
378 16425996 Mean frequencies of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein-stimulated, activated intra-cellular IFN-gamma-producing CD4(+) and CD8(+) lymphocytes and of interleukin-2-producing CD4(+) lymphocytes did not increase after vaccination, but cytokine-producing cells were detectable in some patients.
379 16425996 Comparing pre- to post-HIV-1 vaccination time points, changes in frequencies of activated, IFN-gamma-producing CD4(+) cells correlated inversely with changes in lymphocyte proliferation in response to recombinant envelope glycoprotein in HIV-1 vaccinees (P < 0.05).
380 16425996 Asymptomatic, antiretroviral-treatment-naïve, HIV-1-infected patients with CD4(+) T-cell counts greater than 400/microl received multiple intramuscular injections of HIV-1 IIIB recombinant envelope glycoprotein (rgp160) vaccine or HIV-1 MN recombinant envelope glycoprotein (rgp120) vaccine (eight patients, referred to as the HIV-1 vaccinees) or placebo or hepatitis B vaccine (three patients, referred to as the controls).

392 16426633 Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) entry into cells is initiated by the binding of its envelope glycoprotein (Env) gp120 to receptor CD4.
393 16437164 To initiate infection, the HIV-1 external envelope glycoprotein, gp120, sequentially interacts with two cellular receptors, CD4 and a chemokine receptor (or coreceptor) like CCR5 or CXCR4.
394 16437164 The differential use of CCR5 and CXCR4 defines three HIV-1 biological variants (R5, R5X4, X4), which vary in their prevalence during the disease course.
395 16473414 The envelope glycoprotein D of EHV-1 (EHV-1 gD) is essential for virus infectivity and entry of virus into cells and is a potent inducer of virus-neutralizing antibody.
396 16525729 The ORF5-encoded major envelope glycoprotein (GP5) is one of the key immunogenic proteins of the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and is the leading target for the development of the new generation of vaccines against PRRS.
397 16552713 The hepatitis C virus (HCV) binds to human cells through the interaction of its envelope glycoprotein E2 with the tetraspanin CD81.
398 16552713 We have previously reported that engagement of CD81 has opposite effects on T and NK cell function, as it enhances T cell receptor-mediated T cell activation and inhibits CD16- or IL-12-mediated NK cell activation.
399 16552713 We further investigated this dichotomy and found that another tetraspanin, CD82, induces the same opposing effects on human primary T and NK cells.
400 16552713 Activation by other unrelated stimuli such as NKG2D- and beta-1 integrin is also reduced by CD81 ligation on NK cells.
401 16571816 Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) glycoprotein 5 (GP5) is the most abundant envelope glycoprotein and a major inducer of neutralizing antibodies in vivo.
402 16734977 We recently identified a conserved caveolin-1 binding motif, WNNMTWMQW, in the ectodomain of HIV-1 transmembrane envelope glycoprotein gp41.
403 16734977 We designed the synthetic CBD1 peptide SLEQIWNNMTWMQWDK, corresponding to the consensus caveolin-1 binding domain (CBD) in gp41, and showed that it elicits in rabbits the production of antibodies that inhibit infection of primary CD4(+) T lymphocytes by various primary HIV-1 isolates.
404 16734977 Although a conserved and highly homologous caveolin-1 binding motif is present in the transmembrane envelope glycoprotein of different HIV-2 isolates, anti-CBD1 immune sera do not inhibit HIV-2 infection.
405 16734977 We recently identified a conserved caveolin-1 binding motif, WNNMTWMQW, in the ectodomain of HIV-1 transmembrane envelope glycoprotein gp41.
406 16734977 We designed the synthetic CBD1 peptide SLEQIWNNMTWMQWDK, corresponding to the consensus caveolin-1 binding domain (CBD) in gp41, and showed that it elicits in rabbits the production of antibodies that inhibit infection of primary CD4(+) T lymphocytes by various primary HIV-1 isolates.
407 16734977 Although a conserved and highly homologous caveolin-1 binding motif is present in the transmembrane envelope glycoprotein of different HIV-2 isolates, anti-CBD1 immune sera do not inhibit HIV-2 infection.
408 16763729 The phylogenetic analysis of the nucleotide sequence encoding the GP5 envelope glycoprotein and the nucleocapsid protein coding sequences (ORF5 and ORF7, respectively) showed a close genetic relationship between the new outbreak-related and one of the vaccine viruses, while the prevailing PRRS virus genetic variants disappeared from the farm.
409 16849460 DNA vaccines encoding heat shock protein (hsp)-capturing, chimeric peptides containing antigenic determinants of the tumor-associated Ag (TAA) gp70 (an envelope protein of endogenous retrovirus) primed stable, specific, and tumor-protective CD8 T cell immunity.
410 16849460 A vaccination strategy based on delivering antigenic, hsp-associated TAA fragments can thus prime protective CD8 T cell immunity even if these TAA are of low intrinsic immunogenicity.
411 16921881 One hundred and ninety-one sera from horses that recently were exposed to West Nile virus (WNV) by either vaccination or natural infection or that were not vaccinated and remained free of infection were used to evaluate fluorescent microsphere immunoassays (MIAs) incorporating recombinant WNV envelope protein (rE) and recombinant nonstructural proteins (rNS1, rNS3, and rNS5) for detection of equine antibodies to WNV.
412 16921881 The NS protein-based MIA were all less sensitive than either the rE MIA or PRNT (sensitivity 0-48.0), although the rNSI MIA distinguished horses vaccinated with the recombinant WNV vaccine from those that were immunized with the inactivated WNV vaccine (P < 0.0001) or naturally infected with WNV (P < 0.0001).
413 16941345 Two epitopes (comprising amino acids 352-368 and 386-397) of domain BIII of the envelope glycoprotein were chosen to produce recombinant B19 VLPs for immunization of BALB/c mice.
414 16941345 Serum samples from immunized mice revealed that recombinant B19 VLPs elicited strong humoral immune responses.
415 16941345 In summary, this B19 VLP-vaccine platform produced high (> or =2.0 x 10(5)) anti-dengue 2 titers and robust (< or =1 120) 50%-plaque-reduction neutralization test (PRNT(50)) titers, which effectively neutralized live dengue 2 virus in PRNT(50) assays.
416 16996661 In this study aimed at developing a vaccine for humans, West Nile virus (WNV) envelope protein (E) and non-structural protein 1 (NS1) were produced in the Drosophila S2 cell expression system.
417 16996661 The proteins were purified by immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) using monoclonal antibodies that were flavivirus envelope protein group specific (for the 80E) or flavivirus NS1 group specific (for NS1).
418 16996661 Splenocytes from immunized mice, cultured in vitro with the vaccine antigens as stimulants, showed excellent proliferation and production of cytokines (IFN-gamma, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-10).
419 16996661 In this study aimed at developing a vaccine for humans, West Nile virus (WNV) envelope protein (E) and non-structural protein 1 (NS1) were produced in the Drosophila S2 cell expression system.
420 16996661 The proteins were purified by immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) using monoclonal antibodies that were flavivirus envelope protein group specific (for the 80E) or flavivirus NS1 group specific (for NS1).
421 16996661 Splenocytes from immunized mice, cultured in vitro with the vaccine antigens as stimulants, showed excellent proliferation and production of cytokines (IFN-gamma, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-10).
422 17067727 Groups of hamsters were immunized subcutaneously with a WNV recombinant envelope protein (80E) with or without WNV non-structural protein 1 (NS1) mixed with adjuvant or adjuvant alone.
423 17346134 To determine if the anti-HIV-1 Gag(p55) immune interference was specific to HIV-1 Env(gp120), mice were co-immunized with plasmids expressing the surface envelope protein from two additional lentiviruses, Env(gp130)-SIV or Env(gp90)-EIAV, or a soluble form of hemagglutinin (sHA) from influenza virus and HIV-1 Gag(p55)- or SIV Gag(p55)-DNA.
424 17609282 Entry of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and HIV-2 requires interactions between the envelope glycoprotein (Env) on the virus and CD4 and a chemokine receptor, either CCR5 or CXCR4, on the cell surface.
425 17609282 The V3 loop of the HIV gp120 glycoprotein plays a critical role in this process, determining tropism for CCR5- or CXCR4-expressing cells, but details of how V3 interacts with these receptors have not been defined.
426 17609282 V3-deleted Envs exhibited tropism for both CCR5- and CXCR4-expressing cells, suggesting that domains on the gp120 core were mediating interactions with determinants shared by both coreceptors.
427 17609282 Remarkably, HIV-2 Envs with V3 deletions became resistant to small-molecule inhibitors of CCR5 and CXCR4, suggesting that these drugs inhibit wild-type viruses by disrupting a specific V3 interaction with the coreceptor.
428 17698647 Here, the energetic epitope of antibody mAb4E11, which neutralizes the four serotypes of DENV but no other flavivirus, and binds domain 3 (ED3) of their envelope glycoprotein, was characterized.
429 17913250 The major envelope protein, GP5, exposes outside the virion, induces neutralizing antibodies, and thus is a primary target for developing a subunit vaccine.
430 18162176 Furthermore, Salp15 prevents syncytia formation between HL2/3 (a stable HeLa cell line expressing the envelope protein) and CD4-expressing cells.
431 18184085 Monoclonal antibodies specific for the conserved CD4 binding site region of the HIV envelope protein gp120 were used to select phage from two different random peptide display libraries.
432 18242797 Finally, in order to study the envelope glycoprotein effects on pathogenesis, we have used an in vitro model of co-culture of envelope-expressing cells as effectors and CD4+ T cells as targets.
433 18242797 The apoptotic pathway initiated by this interaction involves caspase-3-dependent mitochondrial depolarization and reactive oxygen species production, which depends on the phenotype of the envelope glycoprotein associated with the virus.
434 18242797 Finally, in order to study the envelope glycoprotein effects on pathogenesis, we have used an in vitro model of co-culture of envelope-expressing cells as effectors and CD4+ T cells as targets.

436 18390744 We previously demonstrated that HIV envelope glycoprotein (Env), delivered in the form of a vaccine and expressed by dendritic cells or 293T cells, could suppress Ag-stimulated CD4(+) T cell proliferation.
437 18390744 Recently, CD4(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells were found to inhibit protective anti-HIV CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell responses.
438 18390744 Depletion of CD25(+) Treg cells from PBMC did not overcome the Env-induced suppression of CD4(+) T cell proliferation, demonstrating that CD25(+)FoxP3(+) Treg cells are not involved in Env-induced suppression of CD4(+) T cell proliferation.
439 18449216 Membrane-anchored C-peptides (for example, maC46) derived from human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein gp41 effectively inhibit HIV-1 entry in cell lines and primary human CD4+ cells in vitro.
440 18449216 Depletion of CD8+ T cells from PBMCs enhanced the yield of maC46-transduced CD4+ T cells.
441 18449216 Supplementation with interleukin-2 (IL-2) increased transduction efficiency, whereas IL-7 and/or IL-15 provided no additional benefit.
442 18449216 Phenotypic analysis showed that maC46-transduced and expanded cells were predominantly central memory CD4+ T cells that expressed low levels of CCR5 and slightly elevated levels of CD62L, beta7-integrin and CXCR4.
443 18519142 Targeted deletion in the beta20-beta21 loop of HIV envelope glycoprotein gp120 exposes the CD4 binding site for antibody binding.
444 18566382 Coligation of the hepatitis C virus receptor CD81 with CD28 primes naive T lymphocytes to acquire type 2 effector function.
445 18566382 In this study, we describe for the first time that coligation of the tetraspanins CD81, CD82, or CD9 with the costimulatory molecule CD28 in vitro leads to proliferation of naive T cells.
446 18566382 When activated through this pathway, both CD4+ and CD8+ naive T cells differentiate into type 2 effector cells, which produce IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and IL-10, together with IL-2 and TNF-alpha, but little to no IFN-gamma.
447 18566382 These effector cells descend from precursors that display early and strong production of IL-4, STAT6 phosphorylation, and up-regulation of the transcription factor GATA-3, suggesting a direct skewing toward Th2 differentiation without a Th0 intermediate.
448 18566382 The hepatitis C virus envelope protein E2 is the only ligand known for CD81.
449 18594881 The HIV-1 gp120 exterior envelope glycoprotein undergoes a series of conformational rearrangements while sequentially interacting with the receptor CD4 and the coreceptor CCR5 or CXCR4 on the surface of host cells to initiate virus entry.
450 18833294 The surface HIV-1 exterior envelope glycoprotein, gp120, binds to CD4 on the target cell surface to induce the co-receptor binding site on gp120 as the initial step in the entry process.
451 18833294 In this study, we investigate the requirements for elicitation of co-receptor binding site antibodies by inoculating rabbits, monkeys and human-CD4 transgenic (huCD4) rabbits with envelope glycoprotein (Env) trimers possessing high affinity for primate CD4.

454 19052311 Groups of aged (12 month old), weanling, and adult hamsters rendered leukopenic after immunization were immunized subcutaneously with a WN virus recombinant envelope protein (WN-80E) with or without WN virus non-structural protein 1 (NS1) mixed with adjuvant or adjuvant alone.

456 19464543 The CBD1 peptide (SLEQIWNNMTWMQWDK), corresponding to the consensus caveolin-1 binding domain in HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp41 (CBD1), elicits the production of antibodies that inhibit infection of primary CD4(+) T lymphocytes by various primary HIV-1 isolates.
457 19478876 The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) exterior envelope glycoprotein, gp120, possesses conserved binding sites for interaction with the primary virus receptor, CD4, and also for the co-receptor, generally CCR5.
458 19501621 Cloning and expression of a truncated form of envelope glycoprotein D of Bovine herpesvirus type 5 in methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris.
459 19519394 Sulfated residues have been recently found in glycoproteins, as GlcNAc or Mannose in N-glycosidic chains of different sources: gp120 of HIV, the envelope glycoprotein of influenza virus, the cysteine protease of Trypanosoma cruzi.
460 19671144 The method described here can also apply to produce capsid/envelope protein complexes or VLPs of other disease-causing viruses.

466 20212098 A DNA plasmid was constructed encoding an SCT incorporating the human MHC class I molecule HLA-A2 and the immunodominant peptide SVG9 derived from the envelope protein of West Nile virus (WNV).
467 20212098 Inclusion of a CD4(+) Th cell epitope within the SCT did not increase the frequency of SVG9-specific CD8(+) T cells, but did enhance protection against WNV challenge.
468 20400507 We describe here a new, family-specific approach to obtain the largest possible diversity of related VHH that compete with soluble CD4 for binding to the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein.
469 20444898 We have shown that following priming with replicating adenovirus type 5 host range mutant (Ad5hr)-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) recombinants, boosting with gp140 envelope protein enhances acute-phase protection against intravenous simian/human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV)(89.6P) challenge compared to results with priming and no boosting or boosting with an HIV polypeptide representing the CD4 binding site of gp120.
470 20447422 The third MAb, 17A3, was reported originally in the same article to be EBOV GP specific has now been found to be specific for bovine and human alpha-2-macroglobulin (alpha-2M) proteins which were contaminants in the Ebola envelope protein preparation.
471 20558728 The outer domain (OD) of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120 is an important target for vaccine design as it contains a number of conserved epitopes, including a large fraction of the CD4 binding site.
472 20573816 While previous work suggests that HCMV envelope glycoprotein B is responsible for initiating this reaction, the signaling pathways stimulated by virus infection that lead to IRF3 phosphorylation have largely been uncharacterized.
473 20610729 We recently reported that rhesus macaques inoculated with CD4-binding-competent and CD4-binding-defective soluble YU2-derived HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) trimers in adjuvant generate comparable levels of Env-specific binding antibodies (Abs) and T cell responses.
474 20616231 During HIV-1 infection, antibodies are generated against the region of the viral gp120 envelope glycoprotein that binds CD4, the primary receptor for HIV-1.
475 20622876 Binding of the third variable region (V3) of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120 to the cell-surface coreceptors CCR5 or CXCR4 during viral entry suggests that there are conserved structural elements in this sequence-variable region.
476 20660185 The binding reaction of the HIV-1 gp120 envelope glycoprotein to the CD4 receptor involves exceptional changes in enthalpy and entropy.
477 20709110 We have previously identified and characterized a human engineered antibody domain (eAd), m36, which exhibits potent broadly neutralizing activity against HIV-1 by targeting a highly conserved CD4 binding-induced (CD4i) structure on the viral envelope glycoprotein (Env) gp120. m36 has very small size (∼15kDa) but is highly specific and is likely to be safe in long-term use thus representing a novel class of potentially promising HIV-1 inhibitors.
478 20709110 We next fused m36 and its mutants with the first two domains (soluble CD4, sCD4) of the human CD4 using a polypeptide linker.
479 20832836 Previous crystallographic studies have identified a total of 11 DENV-2 envelope protein domain III (ED3) residues (K305, F306, K307, V308, V309, K310, I312, Q325, P364, K388, and N390) that interacted, through both side- and main-chain contacts, with the Fab of a dengue virus (DENV) subcomplex-specific neutralizing monoclonal antibody (MAb) 1A1D-2 (Lok et al., 2008).

490 21715490 In contrast to the interaction of CD4 or the CD4bs monoclonal antibody (MAb) b12 with the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env), occlusion of the VRC01 epitope by quaternary constraints was not a major factor limiting neutralization.

530 23325679 The fact that control of SIV replication was associated with both high titers of antibodies to the SIV envelope protein and durable effector SIV-specific CD8(+) T cells suggests the hypothesis that the presence of antibodies at the time of challenge may increase innate immune recruiting activity by enhancing antigen uptake and may result in improvement of the quality and potency of secondary SIV-specific CD8(+) T-cell responses.

543 23617954 Taking advantage of this property, we replaced the CD16 ectodomain of CD16-RIgE by the envelope glycoprotein domain III (DIII) of dengue virus serotype 1 (DENV1) or West Nile virus Kunjin (WNVKun).
544 23617954 Although the neutralization response was modest, our data confirmed the capability of DIII to induce a flavivirus neutralization response, and suggested that our VLP-displayed CD16-RIgE-based platform could be developed as a vaccine vector against different flaviviruses and other viral pathogens.

571 25211639 A fusion DNA vaccine encoding middle version of HBV envelope protein fused to interleukin-21 did not enhance HBV-specific immune response in mice.
572 25211639 Thus, we aimed to investigate the ability of IL-21 in the regulation of middle version of HBV envelop protein (MS) DNA vaccine.
573 25211639 Fusion plasmid encoding IL-21 linked with MS was constructed.
574 25211639 Normal and HBV transgenic mice were immunized by plasmid. pcDNA-IL-21/S2S induced a comparable level of anti-HBs antibody and HBsAg-specific CD8+ T-cell response with pcDNA-S2S.
575 25211639 Furthermore, the level of circulating HBsAg was decreased by induction of anti-HBs antibody and HBsAg-specific CD8+ T-cell response to both pcDNA-IL-21/S2S and pcDNA-S2S vaccination in HBV transgenic mice.
576 25211639 But IL-21 did not strengthen immune response induced by HBV DNA immunization.

598 26116502 In addition, we determined the frequency of vaccine-induced CD4(+) T cells coexpressing chemokine receptor, CXCR5 (facilitates migration to B cell follicles) in blood and whether these responses were representative of lymph node TFH responses.
599 26116502 We show that booster modified vaccinia virus Ankara immunization induced a distinct and transient accumulation of proliferating CXCR5(+) and CXCR5(-) CD4 T cells in blood at day 7 postimmunization, and the frequency of the former but not the latter correlated with TFH and B cell responses in germinal centers of the lymph node.
