We tested whether human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) could be differentiated from HIV-2 by a reverse transcriptase (RT)-typing assay that measured the reduction of enzyme activity owing to...

Modified indirect hemagglutination test for detection of treponemal antibodies in finger-prick blood.

Backhouse, J L, Lee, M H, Nesteroff, S I, Hudson, B J, Hamilton, P A

A modified indirect hemagglutination test for the detection of treponemal antibodies was developed for use with finger-prick blood. By using paired serum and absorbed finger-prick blood from 58...

Comparable sensitivities for detection of human immunodeficiency virus by sensitive reverse transcriptase and antigen capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.

Lee, M H, Sano, K, Morales, F E, Imagawa, D T

The sensitive overnight reverse transcriptase and the antigen capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were tested for their ability to detect human immunodeficiency virus. The two assays were able...

Cross-sectional study of reverse transcriptase-inhibiting antibody as a marker of acquired immune deficiency syndrome.

Advani, M, Imagawa, D T, Lee, M H, Sano, K, Morales, F, Mitsuyasu, R T, ...

A cross-sectional study of 128 individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) was conducted to determine the correlation of reverse transcriptase-inhibiting (RTI) antibody to...

Sensitive reverse transcriptase assay to detect and quantitate human immunodeficiency virus.

Lee, M H, Sano, K, Morales, F E, Imagawa, D T

A sensitive biochemical assay of viral reverse transcriptase (RT) was developed that is useful for both the detection and quantitation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the agent responsible for...

Antibody that inhibits human immunodeficiency virus reverse transcriptase and association with inability to isolate virus.

Sano, K, Lee, M H, Morales, F, Nishanian, P, Fahey, J, Detels, R, ...

Most individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the causative agent of acquired immune deficiency syndrome, produce an antibody against the viral reverse transcriptase (RT). Our...

Mapping a gene involved in regulating dietary cholesterol absorption. The sitosterolemia locus is found at chromosome 2p21.

Patel, S B, Salen, G, Hidaka, H, Kwiterovich, P O, Stalenhoef, A F, Miettinen, T A, ...

The molecular mechanisms regulating the amount of dietary cholesterol retained in the body as well as the body's ability to selectively exclude other dietary sterols are poorly understood. Studies of...

Hydroquinone, a reactive metabolite of benzene, enhances interleukin-4 production in CD4+ T cells and increases immunoglobulin E levels in antigen-primed mice

Lee, M H, Chung, S W, Kang, B Y, Kim, K-M, Kim, T S

Exposure to cigarette smoke is known to increase the risk of the development of allergic disease. The mechanism is not well understood. In this study, we determined the effect of hydroquinone (HQ), a...

Inhibition of interleukin-12 production by auranofin, an anti-rheumatic gold compound, deviates CD4+ T cells from the Th1 to the Th2 pathway

Kim, T S, Kang, B Y, Lee, M H, Choe, Y K, Hwang, S Y

Interleukin-12 (IL-12) may play a central role in the development and progression of rheumatoid arthritis by driving the immune response towards T helper 1 (Th1) type responses characterized by high...

Enhancement of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-induced differentiation of human leukaemia HL-60 cells into monocytes by parthenolide via inhibition of NF-κB activity

Kang, S N, Kim, S H, Chung, S W, Lee, M H, Kim, H J, Kim, T S

Transcription factors such as NF-κB provide powerful targets for drugs to use in the treatment of cancer. In this report parthenolide (PT), a sesquiterpene lactone of herbal remedies such as...

Purification and characterization of Klebsiella aerogenes UreE protein: a nickel-binding protein that functions in urease metallocenter assembly.

Lee, M. H., Pankratz, H. S., Wang, S., Scott, R. A., Finnegan, M. G., Johnson, M. K., ...

The Klebsiella aerogenes ureE gene product was previously shown to facilitate assembly of the urease metallocenter (Lee, M.H., et al., 1992, J. Bacteriol. 174, 4324-4330). UreE protein has now been...

Aspirin-triggered lipoxins (15-epi-LX) are generated by the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549)-neutrophil interactions and are potent inhibitors of cell proliferation.

Clària, J., Lee, M. H., Serhan, C. N.

BACKGROUND: The mechanism by which aspirin (ASA) acts to protect against human cancer is not yet known. We recently showed that ASA triggers the formation of a new series of potent bioactive...
