Experiments as in Table 1 except that p24 concentrations were measured. MAbs were added for 18 h to the basolateral surface of polarized monolayers of pIgR+ Vero C1008 cells that had been transfected with HIV proviral DNA for 4 h. HIV levels in apical supernatants, basolateral media and cell lysates 30 h post transfection were determined by p24 ELISA assay. Data are means from 11 data points ± SEM pooled from seven experiments.
Compared to the no antibody control.
Mean virus titer significantly less than control (p<0.02).
