Target	CD4, HIV[1]
In Vitro	Peptide T acts to block viral entry as it inhibits in the MAGI cell assay and blocks infection in the luciferase reporter assay using HIV virions pseudotyped with ADA envelope. Peptide T selectively inhibits HIV replication using chemokine receptor CCR5 compared to CXC4[2]. Peptide T at 10-8 M induces IL-10 production by the human Th2 cell line and PBMC. Also peptide T at 10-9 M concentration significantly inhibits IFN-g production by PBMC[3].
In Vivo	Peptide T is administered subcutaneously at different doses and phases of the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) disease, but Peptide T neither prevents nor ameliorates EAE[4].
Cell Assay	Peripheral blood mononuclear cells are stimulated with PHA (5 mg/mL) along with various concentrations of peptide T (10-6-10-12 M) for 48 h at 37°C. Supernatants are collected and frozen until analysis[3].
Animal Admin	Rats[4] Peptide T (125, 250, 500, 800 μg) is randomly given subcutaneously to Female Lewis rats aged 6-8 weeks in the hind foot flanks in a final volume of 0.2 mL. Control animals receive the same volume of saline alone[4].
