Vels of viral particles, we speculate that average levels of host-viral chimeric transcripts in these cells exceed those in the two J-Lat cell lines. These results thus suggest that TI plays a key role in primary CD4+ T cells. In J-Lat 9.2 and 15.4 cells, the host-viral chimeric transcripts terminated at the pA site in the 5'LTR, but transcripts initiating at the host promoter and terminating at t

Me transcription through the provirus, since slight enrichment of elongating RNAPII in the HIV coding region of transcriptionally silent J-Lat 9.2 cells was observed using ChIPqPCR assay. However, transcription originating from the host promoter, ignoring pA sites in both LTRs and consequently splicing out the provirus together with the host intron (Han et al., 2004) is most likely less frequent t

Nce it has been demonstrated that transcription from the PP5 promoter could be reduced through inhibiting estrogen receptor (ER) (Urban et al., 2001). Therefore, we established J-Lat 9.2 and control J-Lat 8.4 cell lines that stably express miRNA-adapted shRNA (shRNAmir) against the ER mRNA (J-Lat 9.2 shER and J-Lat 8.4 shER, respectively). In both J-Lat shER cell lines, the ER levels were decrease

And 2). In contrast, this ratio became reversed upon partial activation of viral transcription with TNF-. The ratios between the viral mRNA and *mRNA were 38- and 11-fold in J-Lat 9.2 and 15.4, respectively (Figure 2D, bars 3 and 4). Using RT-DqPCR we further assessed levels of *mRNA relative to those of full-length mRNA (Figure S2). Interestingly, levels of PP5 *mRNA were 10-times lower compared

The prioritization of health interventions [22]. The trade-offs between efficiency and equity are among these criteria, and have long been emphasized in the field of HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention [23,24]. Several mathematical frameworks, including mathematical programming, have been proposed to incorporate equity considerations into resource allocation in the public sector [25-29]. Several of

Ly 20 activation of viral transcription (see Figure 7) already precludes detection of the upstream transcription. This finding is not surprising, as we demonstrated that there is 11-fold or 38-fold more viral mRNA than *mRNA in TNF- treated cells (Figure 2D, bars 3 and 4). Predictably, our control experiments demonstrate that the ratio between the Rev- and Env-containing transcripts was 1 in untr
