Hospital management of mass radiological casualties: reassessing exposures from contaminated victims of an exploded radiological dispersal deviceJames M Smith
Division of Environmental Hazards and Health Effects, National Center for Environmental Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, MS E 39, 1600 Clifton Road N E, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA
Health Phys 89:513-20. 2005..It is demonstrated that exceptional but plausible cases may require special precautions by the healthcare provider, even while managing life-threatening injuries of a contaminated victim from a radiological dispersal device event...
Generation of a dual RT Env SHIV that is infectious in rhesus macaquesJames M Smith
Laboratory Branch, Division of HIV AIDS Prevention, National Center for HIV, STD, TB Prevention, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, USA
J Med Primatol 39:213-23. 2010..We describe construction of a dual SHIV containing both HIV RT and a CCR5-specific HIV envelope gene in a simian immunodeficiency virus backbone...
Critical role for Env as well as Gag-Pol in control of a simian-human immunodeficiency virus 89.6P challenge by a DNA prime/recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara vaccineRama Rao Amara
Vaccine Research Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia 30322, USA
J Virol 76:6138-46. 2002..Our results highlight the importance of immune responses to Env, as well as to Gag-Pol, in the control of immunodeficiency virus challenges and the protection of CD4(+) cells...
Repeated rectal SHIVSF162P3 exposures do not consistently induce sustained T cell responses prior to systemic infection in the repeat-low dose preclinical macaque modelEllen N Kersh
Division of HIV AIDS Prevention, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia 30333, USA
AIDS Res Hum Retroviruses 25:905-17. 2009..Our results provide further insights into the repeat exposure macaque model. We find that this model can be used for testing biomedical prevention strategies without concern of eliciting a systemic vaccination effect...
Control of a mucosal challenge and prevention of AIDS by a multiprotein DNA/MVA vaccineRama Rao Amara
Vaccine Research Center, Yerkes Regional Primate Research Center, Emory University, 954 Gatewood Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30329, USA
Vaccine 20:1949-55. 2002..These highly promising findings provide hope that a relatively simple multiprotein DNA/MVA vaccine can help to control the AIDS epidemic...
Multiprotein HIV type 1 clade B DNA/MVA vaccine: construction, safety, and immunogenicity in MacaquesJames M Smith
Emory Vaccine Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia 30329, USA
AIDS Res Hum Retroviruses 20:654-65. 2004....
Slowly declining levels of viral RNA and DNA in DNA/recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara-vaccinated macaques with controlled simian-human immunodeficiency virus SHIV-89.6P challengesYuyang Tang
Vaccine Research Center, Yerkes National Primate Research Center, 954 Gatewood Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30329, USA
J Virol 76:10147-54. 2002..Thus, to date, control of the challenge infection has appeared to improve with time, with the decay rates for viral DNA being at the lower end of values reported for patients on highly active antiretroviral therapy...
DNA/MVA vaccine for HIV type 1: effects of codon-optimization and the expression of aggregates or virus-like particles on the immunogenicity of the DNA primeJames M Smith
Emory Vaccine Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia 30329, USA
AIDS Res Hum Retroviruses 20:1335-47. 2004..Based on the breadth of the T cell response and a trend toward higher titers of anti-Env Ab, we are moving forward with human trials of the noncodon-optimized VLP-expressing DNA...
Development and evaluation of a vaginal ring device for sustained delivery of HIV microbicides to non-human primatesNattawan Promadej-Lanier
Laboratory Branch, Division of HIV AIDS Prevention, National Center for HIV, STD, TB Prevention, CCID, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA
J Med Primatol 38:263-71. 2009..There is considerable interest in developing coitally independent, sustained release formulations for long-term administration of HIV microbicides. Vaginal ring devices are at the forefront of this formulation strategy...
Studies on the cross-clade and cross-species conservation of HIV-1 Gag-specific CD8 and CD4 T cell responses elicited by a clade B DNA/MVA vaccine in macaquesRama Rao Amara
Emory Vaccine Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA 30322, USA
Virology 334:124-33. 2005..Our results demonstrate that the clade B DNA/MVA HIV vaccine elicits T cell responses against epitopes that are conserved in multiple clades and recognized by humans and macaques...
