Protection of sh1005-modified splenocytes. Comparison of p24 reactivation in sh1005 (EGFP+) and no shRNA (mCherry+) population ex vivo. Splenocytes were isolated from R5-tropic HIV-1NFNSX–challenged hu BLT mice (n = 7) or X4-tropic HIV-1NL4-3–challenged hu BLT mice (n = 7). Splenocytes were isolated, stimulated with PHA/IL-2 for 5 days to reactivate HIV-1 and stained with anti-HIV-1 p24 gag monoclonal antibodies. (a) Representative p24 intracellular staining data in CD45+CD3+CD8- cell population were shown. (b) Results of p24 reactivation in EGFP+ population (solid circle) and in mCherry+ population (open circle) from all analyzed mice are shown. The percentages of p24 expression within EGFP+ or mCherry+ populations were normalized based on % each marker (EGFP or mCherry) expression for the comparison. *P ≤ 0.05. n.s., not significant.
