Genes expressed in control uninfected and HIV-1-infected cells. Stringent criteria were used for calling a gene present (i.e., a gene that can be reliably detected and quantitated with accuracy). A general down-regulation, especially with the HIV-infected population, can be noted. Genes that are expressed in control only increase from 184 at 24 h to 805 at 72 h, while genes specific for HIV-infected cells number 549 at 24 h and 148 at 72 h. Genes expressed in both populations diminish over time as more genes are shut down in the HIV-infected cell population.
