From stocks of adenovirus and poliovirus prepared in primary rhesus macaque kidney cells and dating from 1956 to 1961, the time when SV40 contaminated some poliovirus vaccine lots, we have recovered ten isolates of SV40. Of these ten isolates, based on the C-terminal region of T antigen, five novel strains of SV40 have been identified. Additionally, three pairs of isolates were found to be the same strain: one pair was strain 777, one pair was strain 776 archetype, and the third pair represented a novel strain.

We investigated roles for chemoattractants in dissemination of HIV-1 by examining the induction of T cell-active chemokines in HIV-1-infected human monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells. Of the 12 chemokines analyzed, mRNAs for two, CXCL10 and CXCL11, ligands for the chemokine receptor CXCR3, were up-regulated in both cell types upon infection by HIV-1. Induction of these chemokine genes in infected cultures was dependent on both viral entry and reverse transcriptase activity, but not on the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein.
