All chemokines were added to CD4 SP thymocytes 1 to 2 h prior to infection and then maintained at the indicated concentrations during culture. Thymocytes were infected with HIV-1NL4-3 at an MOI of 0.01; supernatants were harvested at the indicated times and analyzed for p24 by ELISA. Chemokine-mediated inhibition of p24 production was calculated by comparison with control cultures without chemokines.
