The morbidity of insomnia uncomplicated by psychiatric disorders

Efficient superinfection of H9HTLVIIIB cell line (persistently infected with HIVHXB2 strain) with HIVMN strain is reported. The superinfecting viral DNA was found in the chromosomic and extrachromosomic fractions at early stages, but at 48 hours post superinfection, it remained mainly unintegrated. Interestingly, superinfected cells only produced HIVHXB2 in the supernatant and no increase of viral yield of this persistent virus was observed. Remarkably, virions of both strains. HIVHXB2 and HIVMN, were recovered after cocultivating superinfected cells with MT2 cell line. In the extrachromosomic fractions of seven different superinfected subclons of H9HTLVIIIB, viral DNA of the superinfecting HIVMN strain predominated while in the chromosomic fraction, the proportion of superinfecting viral DNA differed. The study of the presence of different integrated and unintegrated genomes in a single cell could be crucial in the understanding of HIV biology.
