“…Despite a tenfold lower HIV-1 Han# inoculum used for ch-On as compared to ch-Su.A, the RNA peak levels in plasma were 7n5 times higher. This result indicates that a higher virus inoculum does not necessarily result in higher viraemia, confirming our earlier observations in the SIV\SHIV rhesus monkey model (Bogers et al, 1997 a). The numbers of proviral DNA-containing cells in both PBMC and LNMC from ch-Su.A and ch-On were similar despite a tenfold difference in virus inoculum dose and this level remained relatively persistent.…”

“…Furthermore, in addition to the antibody titres observed, HIV-1 Han# -specific neutralizing antibodies were detected 6 months post-infection (unpublished). Another possible reason for the absence of plasma antigen might be the presence of suppressor factors able to suppress HIV-1 replication in provirus-containing cells (Bogers et al, 1997 b ;Heeney et al, 1996).…”

“…We postulate that systemic infection is achieved once the virus inoculum exceeds a predetermined threshold, which differs for the various routes of inoculation and is age dependent, according to our new data. However, once this threshold has been surpassed and systemic infection is established, there is no association between the inoculum size and peak viral RNA; this lack of a dose response has been observed previously (6) and is not surprising for an outbred population of primates.…”

“…Simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) strains are chimeric viruses constructed from the pathogenic simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) clone SIVmac239, in which the env, tat, and rev genes had been replaced by the corresponding regions of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1); most SHIVs also contain vpu (7,21,22,25,27,31,35,47). SHIV infection of rhesus macaques has been an invaluable in vivo model to study the role of HIV-1 envelopes in transmission and pathogenesis as well as to evaluate the efficacy of candidate vaccines based on HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins, which specify cell tropism and coreceptor usage and are also primary targets of the immune response.…”
