Twenty-six 8-year-old children who had had respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis in infancy and their paired controls underwent skin and blood tests to assess the role of immunodeficiency and atopy in the pathogenesis of RSV bronchiolitis and the wheezing that may follow it. There was no difference between p
Fibroblast cultures established from the skin of 56 healthy controls and 15 untreated Stages I and II Hodgkin s patients (HD) were studied in their 3rd, 4th and 5th in vitro passage with respect to transformation with Simian sarcoma virus (SSV) and SV40 and with respect to replication of herpes simplex virus (HSV) Typ

The effect of the ribonuclease inhibitor polyvinyl sulfate on the activity of retroviral DNA polymerase and terminal c transferase was examined. This substance was found to be a potent inhibitor of these enzymes by virtue of competition between the sulfated sidechains of the molecule and the template primer for a site
Fresh human B-lymphoblasts established in culture following exposure of adult peripheral blood leukocytes to type C retroviruses of the simian sarcoma virus/simian sarcoma-associated virus-gibbon ape leukemia virus group were analyzed in detail for the presence of the infecting virus. Viral expression ranged from prod
A 48-yr-old man with profuse diarrhea for about 9 mo was found to have intestinal cryptosporidiosis. Treatment with antibacterial, antimalarial, and other antiprotozoal agents failed to control the disease. The organisms were identified by light and electron microscopy in a biopsy specimen from the duodenum. Dissemina

The integrated form of simian sarcoma virus (SSV) was molecularly cloned in the Charon 16A strain of bacteriophage lambda. In transfection analysis, the recombinant viral DNAs demonstrated the ability to transform cells in tissue culture at high efficiency. Such transformants possessed typical SSV morphology, expresse
