Or media alone were added in duplicate wells, and the TER was measured at 30 min and 2, 4, 9, and 24 h. The epithelial resistance was expressed as follows :epithelial resistance = (/cm2) - the resistance of transwells without cells.HIV cell-free particles transcytosis the epithelial cell line HEC-1A was grown as a tight polarized monolayer on a permeable support of 0.4- -porediameter polycarbonate
Bit Ability ofepithelial cells attachment of HIV-1 cell-free parAbility of lectins to inhibit attachment of HIV-1 cell-free particles on epithelial cells. HEC-1A cells were co-incubated with non-toxic concentrations of each lectins or mannan (100 /ml) and 5 ng of HIV-1Ba-L (A) or HIV-1NDK (B) virus were added for 1 h. Incubation with mannan was used as control. The quantity of attached virus was
Plant lectins. The HIV-1J-RCSF strain was used in this experiment due to the low transcytosis ability of HIV-1Ba-L strain [8]. As shown in Figure 3A, HHA inhibited transcytosis of cell-free HIV-1 in a dose-dependent manner. Similarly to mannan (100 /ml) that inhibited HIV transcytosis up to 41 , increasing concentrations of HHA (range 1-10-100 /ml) afforded a 17 , 42 and 54 decrease of HIV-1JR
