| Abstract | Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) non-syncytium-inducing (NSI) strains predominantly use the chemokine receptor CCR5, while syncytium-inducing (SI) strains use CXCR4. In vitro, SI isolates infect and replicate in a range of CD4+ CXCR4+ T-cell lines, whereas NSI isolates usually do not. Here we describe three NSI strains that are able to infect two CD4+ T-cell lines, Molt4 and SupT1. For one strain, a variant of JRCSF selected in vitro, replication on Molt4 was previously shown to be conferred by a single amino-acid change in the V1 loop (M.T. Boyd et al., J. Virol. 67:3649–3652, 1993). On CD4+ cell lines expressing different coreceptors, these strains use CCR5 predominantly and do not replicate in CCR5-negative peripheral blood mononuclear cells derived from individuals homozygous for Δ32 CCR5. Furthermore, infection of Molt4 and SupT1 by each of these three strains is potently inhibited by ligands for CCR5, including 2D7, a monoclonal antibody specific for CCR5. CCR5 mRNA was present in both Molt4 and SupT1 by reverse transcription-PCR, although CCR5 protein could not be detected either on the cell surface or in intracellular vesicles. The expanded tropism of the three strains shown here is therefore not due to adaptation to a new coreceptor but due to the capacity to exploit extremely low levels of CCR5 on Molt4 and SupT1 cells. This novel tropism observed for a subset of primary HIV-1 isolates may represent an extended tropism to new CD4+ cell types in vivo. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
