1 8349820 Sera obtained prior to boosting had undetectable HIV-1-specific IgG and neutralizing activity, and did not block HIV-1 from binding or fusing to CD4+ MT-2 cells. 14 d after boosting, sera from each volunteer contained HIV-1-specific IgG titers of 1:40 to 1:1,280.
2 14520699 Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 Tax activates cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21/Waf1/Cip1 expression through a p53-independent mechanism: Inhibition of cdk2.
3 14520699 Tax transfection resulted in enhanced expression of p21 protein in T and fibroblastoid cells.
4 14520699 Similarly, Tax-expressing cells have higher amounts of endogenous p21 protein and RNA.
5 14520699 However, neither Tax-negative, HTLV-1 transformed cells or HTLV-1-negative T cell lines had detectable levels of p21 protein and RNA.
6 14520699 CREB/ATF defective Tax mutant (M47) activated the p21 promoter significantly less efficiently.
7 14520699 Tax activated wild type (wt) p21 promoter in p53-negative Jurkat and p53-positive A301cells, irrespective of endogenous p53 status, and activated a mutant p21 promoter containing a p53 responsive element (p53RE) deletion as strongly as wt promoter.
8 14520699 Of importance, cdk2 activity was almost completely abolished in Tax-induced p21-expressing MT-2 cells, suggesting that Tax-induced p21 predominantly affects the activity of cdk2, a late G1 and S phase kinase.
9 14520699 Taken together, these findings suggest that HTLV-1 Tax activates p21/Waf1/Cip1, a cell growth inhibitor, in a p53-independent mechanism through CREB/ATF-related transcription factors, and inhibits cdk2.
10 19357975 MT-1 and MT-3 mRNAs were expressed in the cerebellum in a dose-dependent manner.
11 19357975 In the cerebrum, little MT-1 protein was detected at 10 and 24 h, and there were no peaks of MT-2 protein in the cerebrum.
12 19357975 In conclusion, MT-1 and MT-3 mRNAs but not MT-2 mRNA are easily expressed in the cerebellum rather than in the cerebrum by the injection of low-dose thimerosal.
13 19357975 MT-1 and MT-3 mRNAs were expressed in the cerebellum in a dose-dependent manner.
14 19357975 In the cerebrum, little MT-1 protein was detected at 10 and 24 h, and there were no peaks of MT-2 protein in the cerebrum.
15 19357975 In conclusion, MT-1 and MT-3 mRNAs but not MT-2 mRNA are easily expressed in the cerebellum rather than in the cerebrum by the injection of low-dose thimerosal.
