Effect of CP-96,345 on HIV infection of MDM. Different HIV strains were
used to infect MDM in the presence or absence of CP-96,345
(10−7 M). HIV RT activity in the culture supernatants was
determined 8 days after infection. HIV RT activity in the
CP-96,345-treated and HIV-infected MDM were expressed as percentage of
that of untreated and HIV (corresponding strains)-infected MDM
controls, which were defined as 100%. The data shown are presented as
the mean ± SD of triplicate cultures and are representative of
three experiments (*, P < 0.05;
**, P < 0.01; CP-96,345 vs. HIV
only). R5, CCR5 tropic strains; X4, CXCR4 tropic strains; R5X4, dual
tropic strains.
