(1) Of the 212 retrospective donors, six were repeatedly reactive by LAV EIA and 212 by HTLV-III EIA; only six (the six LAV EIA positive) were positive by Western blot.
(2) In the second approach, lysosomal-autophagic vacuolar (LAV) fractions were isolated from livers pretreated and perfused as above.
(3) Based on the antibody profiles of nonapeptide recognition, peptides LAV-1, RF and SF2 were clustered, as were NY5 and CDC4, and so were Z6, MAL and ELI.
(4) Seropositivity from lymphadenopathy-associated virus (LAV) rose from under 10% in 1978 to 49% in 1984 among homosexual men attending a Colorado clinic for sexually transmitted diseases.
(5) Time-dose relations effective against HTLV-III-LAV are given.
(6) After cocultivation with sensitive CEM cells, HIV-1 LAV was rescued from six infected cell lines and HIV-1 NDK from nine.
(7) In the present study it was demonstrated that transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), a factor known to be produced by platelets, macrophages, and other cells present at a wound site, can act as a mediator in overcoming the lymphocytotropic restriction of several well-characterized viral isolates of HIV-1 (i.e., LAV, Z84, pLAI, NY5).
(8) Lymphadenopathy, decreased skin hypersensitivity reactions, relative lymphopenia, and altered ratio of T lymphocyte subsets occurred at significantly higher rates in patients positive for LAV antibody, although such abnormalities were also encountered in LAV serologically negative patients.
(9) These cells were infected with LAV at two different input multiplicity of infection (MOI).
(10) PEPTI-LAV 1-2 has proved most useful in the diagnosis orientation in the cases of crossed reactivity between HIV-1 and HIV-2.
(11) IL-2 did not increase inhibitory activity by increasing the number of CD8+ cells or the number of CD8 molecules on the LAV cell surface but by altering the activation state of the LAV cell.
(12) Following the effect of LLU on RNA-dependent DNA polymerase, inhibition of the LAV 1 reverse transcriptase by LLU was observed.
(13) Moreover ELAT-CSG is significantly more sensitive than ELAT-LAV (P = 0.03).
(14) All three animals developed a progressively increasing type-specific neutralizing LAV-1 versus HTLV-IIIB antibody titer during the 2-year observation period which broadened in specificity to include HTLV-HIRF, HTLV-IIIMN, and HTLV-IIICC after 6 to 12 months.
(15) Several lines of evidence have indicated that the aetiological agent of AIDS is a group of T-lymphotropic retroviruses, variously known as lymphadenopathy-associated virus (LAV), human T-lymphotropic virus type III (HTLV-III) and AIDS-associated retrovirus (ARV).
(16) Only HIV1-NDK, and not HIV1-LAV, induced ultrastructural alterations in BDM.
(17) The discovery that the aetiological agent of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a retrovirus, referred to as human T-lymphotropic virus type III (HTLV-III) or lymphadenopathy-associated virus (LAV) (for review see ref.
(18) An HeLa-LAV cell line was established by infecting and subcloning previously described CD4-expressing HeLa cells with HIV-1.
(19) Fragments of the transmembrane proteins gp41 of HIV-1 (HTLV-IIIB) and gp38 of HIV-2 (LAV-2 ROD) proved to be highly antigenic in the immunoblot test system.
(20) Compound 8 was also evaluated against another HIV-1 strain (HTLV-IIIRF) and HIV-2 strains (LAV-2ROD and LAV-2EHO).

Example Sentences:
(1) The model I use for my paintings is a surfer guy who's built like a brick shithouse."
(2) Alyokhina responded by quoting the president and his spokesman: "That is no more indecent than your Vladimir Vladimirovich [Putin]'s statements about 'wasting our enemies in the shithouse' or 'smearing the livers of protesters on the pavement'."
