Prevalence of human T-cell leukemia virus types I and II in Switzerland. (2004)
Böni, J, Bisset, L R, Burckhardt, J J, Joller-Jemelka, H I, Bürgisser, P, Perrin, L, ...
The retroviruses human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1/2 and human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV)-I/II share modes of transmission, suggesting that efforts to monitor the current HIV-1 epidemic in...
High frequency of non-B subtypes in newly diagnosed HIV-1 infections in Switzerland. (1999)
Böni, J, Pyra, H, Gebhardt, M, Perrin, L, Bürgisser, P, Matter, L, ...
HIV-1 subtypes were determined in newly diagnosed residents of Switzerland. Blood was anonymously collected from patients with a first confirmed positive HIV-1 test result. Viral DNA from the env...

Recent evidence suggests that nerve growth factor (NGF), in addition to its neurotrophic functions, acts as an immunomodulator mediating "cross-talk" between neuronal and immune cells, including T...
In vitro cultivation of Toxoplasma gondii cysts in astrocytes in the presence of gamma interferon.
Jones, T C, Bienz, K A, Erb, P
Long-term culturing of Toxoplasma gondii cysts was accomplished in vitro in association with murine astrocytes and intermittent additions of gamma interferon to the media. Phase-contrast microscopy...
Guinea pig peritoneal or alveolar macrophages were inoculated with Mycoplasma pneumoniae cells. Extracellular mycoplasms were killed by complement treatment, and the effect of macrophage action on...
Buechner, S A, Wernli, M, Harr, T, Hahn, S, Itin, P, Erb, P
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer in humans, and although metastasis rarely occurs, the tumor cells are nevertheless able to invade and destroy the surrounding tissue....
Sklenar, I, Neri, T M, Berger, W, Erb, P
To test the association of HLA-DR antigens with high-responder and low-responder status to either beef or pork insulin, insulin antibodies in diabetic sera were separated into those with average low...

The in vitro induction and assay of bovine or porcine insulin specific T helper cells is described. Using a modified Marbrook-Diener culture system, helper cells were generated either by incubating...
Genetics of human T cell-monocyte interaction in helper cell induction.
Rees, A, Feldmann, M, Woody, J N, Erb, P
The generation of human antigen-specific helper cells from unprimed peripheral blood lymphoid cells in tissue culture requires the presence of the appropriate number of blood monocytes. The role of...
Hepatitis C virus and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma: findings from the Swiss HIV Cohort Study
Franceschi, S, Polesel, J, Rickenbach, M, Dal Maso, L, Probst-Hensch, N M, Fux, C, ...
Infections with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and, possibly, hepatitis B virus (HBV) are associated with an increased risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in the general population, but little information...
