Prevalence of syphilis and hepatitis B among homosexual men in two saunas in Amsterdam.: Br J Vener Dis. 1981 Jun;57(3):196-9. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81209289; Bleeker A; Coutinho RA; Bakker-Kok J; Tio D; de Koning GA; In a pilot study by field-screening in two different sauna baths, a day-sauna and a night-sauna, 318 homosexual men were investigated for syphilis and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and its antibody (anti-HBs). Of the 134 visitors to the day-sauna 35.1% were seroreactive for syphilis, four (3%) carried HBsAg, and
Contrasting patterns and frequency of antibodies to the surface, core, and e antigens of hepatitis B virus in blood donors and in homosexual patients.: J Med Virol. 1981;6(4):323-32. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81217375; Tedder RS; Cameron CH; Wilson-Croome R; Howell DR; Colgrove A; Barbara JA; An attempt was made to assess the significance of the relatively frequent low-titre positive reactions in radioimmunoassays for antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen. Serum specimens negative for surface antigen were assayed for antibodies to the surface, core, and e antigens of the Hepatitis B virus. Two population
Chlamydia trachomatis proctitis.: N Engl J Med. 1981 Jul 23;305(4):195-200. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81220828; Quinn TC; Goodell SE; Mkrtichian E; Schuffler MD; Wang SP; Stamm WE; Holmes KK; One hundreds seventy-one homosexual men, 96 of whom had symptoms suggestive of proctitis and 75 of whom had no such symptoms, were consecutively enrolled in a study of the prevalence, clinical spectrum, and histopathology of Chlamydia trachomatis rectal infections. C. trachomatis was isolated from the rectums of 14 me
Angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy after infectious mononucleosis.: Br Med J (Clin Res Ed). 1981 May 16;282(6276):1574-5. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81209129; Seigneurin JM; Mingat J; Lenoir GM; Couderc P; Micoud M; Angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy occurred in a 46-year-old man 16 months after an episode of infectious mononucleosis induced by Epstein-Barr (EB) virus. The features of infectious mononucleosis included fever, pharyngitis, lymph gland enlargement, hepatosplenomegaly, hyperbasophilic mononuclear cells, and IgM antib
Virology and immune mechanisms.: Cancer. 1981 Mar 1;47(5 Suppl):1091-4. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81209749; Merigan TC; Epstein-Barr virus and hepatitis B virus are two agents which chronically infect man and have been associated with specific neoplasms. Such findings point the way to new methods of control and detection of human malignancies. Furthermore, immunosuppression is another major factor underlying the development of certain
Pathophysiologic analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes from patients with primary immunodeficiency. I. Ig synthesis by peripheral blood lymphocytes stimulated with either pokeweed mitogen or Epstein-Barr virus in vitro.: J Immunol. 1981 Jul;127(1):311-5. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81216658; Mitsuya H; Osaki K; Tomino S; Katsuki T; Kishimoto S; In the present study 5 patients with common variable hypogammaglobulinemia (CVH) and 4 patients with selective IgA deficiency (IgA-D) were analyzed for the cellular defects responsible for impaired Ig synthesis with use of peripheral blood lymphocytes stimulated with either PWM or EBV in vitro. By the use of co-cultur
Three distinct genes in human DNA related to the transforming genes of mammalian sarcoma retroviruses.: Science. 1981 Jul 10;213(4504):226-8. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81225821; Wong-Staal F; Dalla-Favera R; Franchini G; Gelmann EP; Gallo RC; Southern blot hybridization was used to identify human and other vertebrate DNA sequences that were homologous to cloned DNA fragments containing the oncogenic nucleic acid sequences of three different type C mammalian retroviruses (simian sarcoma virus, the Snyder-Theilen strain of feline sarcoma virus, and the Harve
[Role of known oncoviruses in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus]: Vopr Revm. 1980 Oct-Dec;(4):43-6. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81227784; Alekberova ZS; Tarasishin LA; Barinskii IF; Vlasenkova NK; Fillips P
Immunological properties of a type C retrovirus isolated from cultured human T-lymphoma cells and comparison to other mammalian retroviruses.: J Virol. 1981 Jun;38(3):906-15. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/81218513; Kalyanaraman VS; Sarngadharan MG; Poiesz B; Ruscetti FW; Gallo RC; HTLV strain CR (HTLVCR) is a retrovirus which was isolated from a human T-cell lymphoma cell line. A protein of molecular weight 24,000 p24, was purified from this virus. Several results indicate that this p24 is an internal core protein of HTLVCR. (i) The p24 copurified with viral cores. (ii) It was labeled with 125I
