FIG. 1.
HIV-1 infects feline adherent cells but is restricted in feline T cells. (A) Left panel: adherent cell lines (human [HOS] and feline [CrFK, KE-R]) and T-cell lines (human [A3.01] and feline [MYA-1, FeT-1C]) were infected with increasing amounts of HIV-Luc(VSV-G). Luciferase activity (in counts per second) was determined at 3 dpi. Center panel: CrFK, A3.01, MYA-1, and FeT-1C cells were inoculated with increasing amounts of FIV-Luc(VSV-G). Luciferase activity was determined at 3 dpi. (B) CrFK, A3.01, MYA-1, and FeT-1C cells were transduced using HIV-GFP(VSV-G) at an MOI of 5. GFP fluorescence was determined 3 dpi by flow cytometry. The data are presented as side scatter versus the intensity of green. The quantity (percent) of GFP-positive cells over the threshold is indicated above of the horizontal line in each panel; mean fluorescence intensity is specified below the horizontal line.
