Effects of Anticoagulant, Processing Delay, and Assay Method (Branched DNA versus Reverse Transcriptase PCR) on Measurement of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 RNA Levels in Plasma

Kirstein, Lynn M., Mellors, John W., Rinaldo, Charles R., Margolick, Joseph B., Giorgi, Janis V., Phair, John P., ...

We conducted two studies to determine the potential influence of delays in blood processing, type of anticoagulant, and assay method on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA levels in...

Viability and Recovery of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Cryopreserved for up to 12 Years in a Multicenter Study

Kleeberger, Cynthia A., Lyles, Robert H., Margolick, Joseph B., Rinaldo, Charles R., Phair, John P., Giorgi, Janis V.

The Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS), an ongoing prospective study of the natural history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), has stored biologic specimens, including peripheral blood...

Potential Contributions of Viral Envelope and Host Genetic Factors in a Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1-Infected Long-Term Survivor

Grovit-Ferbas, Kathie, Ferbas, John, Gudeman, Vaheideh, Sadeghi, Saeed, Goetz, Matthew Bidwell, Giorgi, Janis V., ...

The lack of clinical progression in some individuals despite prolonged human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection may result from infection with less-pathogenic viral strains. To address...

Functional Reconstitution of Thymopoiesis after Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection

Kitchen, Scott G., Killian, Scott, Giorgi, Janis V., Zack, Jerome A.

We have utilized combination antiretroviral therapy following human immunodeficiency virus type 1-induced human CD4+ thymocyte depletion in the SCID-hu mouse to examine the immune competence of...

MaGiK Method of T-Cell Receptor Repertoire Analysis

Killian, M. Scott, Matud, Jose, Detels, Roger, Giorgi, Janis V., Jamieson, Beth D.

T-cell receptor diversity enables the cellular immune response to recognize a broad range of viral and other pathogenic agents. An increasingly common method of characterizing T-cell receptor...
