ABSTRACT:
Murine monoclonal antibodies and related products such as antibody fragments, immunotoxins, human and humanized antibodies are disclosed, all of which bind to the gp120 protein on the envelope of HIV-1. These antibodies and related products neutralize HIV-1. They inhibit the infection of T cells, and also inhibit syncytium formation. Further, the antibodies are preferably group-specific and neutralize various strains and isolates of HIV-1. These antibodies have a variety of uses, including the treatment of AIDS and ARC, the prevention of HIV-1 infection, as well as a diagnostic application, in that they can be used for assaying of unknown fluid samples for HIV-1.
