Dr. Gerald Quinnan is an infectious disease specialist practicing in Rockville, MD. Dr. Quinnan specializes in infections that are difficult to diagnose or unresponsive to treatments, such as HIV or airborne infections from a foreign country. Infectious disease specialists usually work with conditions that are not treatable by a primary physician but it is important to keep contact with the primary physician in order to receive information about the patients history and for deciding which diagnostic tests are appropriate.

Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Expression and characterization of HIV type 1 envelope protein associated with a broadly reactive neutralizing antibody response.
- Primary virus envelope cross-reactivity of the broadening neutralizing antibody response during early chronic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection.
- Both neutralization resistance and high infectivity phenotypes are caused by mutations of interacting residues in the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 gp41 leucine zipper and the gp120 receptor- and coreceptor-binding domains.
- Mutagenesis of CXCR4 identifies important domains for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 X4 isolate envelope-mediated membrane fusion and virus entry and reveals cryptic coreceptor activity for R5 isolates.
- A global neutralization resistance phenotype of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is determined by distinct mechanisms mediating enhanced infectivity and conformational change of the envelope complex.
- Regulatory concerns regarding AIDS vaccine development.
- A variable region 3 (V3) mutation determines a global neutralization phenotype and CD4-independent infectivity of a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 envelope associated with a broadly cross-reactive, primary virus-neutralizing antibody response.
- Concordant modulation of neutralization resistance and high infectivity of the primary human immunodeficiency virus type 1 MN strain and definition of a potential gp41 binding site in gp120.
- Induction of primary virus-cross-reactive human immunodeficiency virus type 1-neutralizing antibodies in small animals by using an alphavirus-derived in vivo expression system.
- A novel human antibody against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 gp120 is V1, V2, and V3 loop dependent and helps delimit the epitope of the broadly neutralizing antibody immunoglobulin G1 b12.
- Multiple interactions across the surface of the gp120 core structure determine the global neutralization resistance phenotype of human immunodeficiency virus type 1.
- Broadly cross-reactive HIV neutralizing human monoclonal antibody Fab selected by sequential antigen panning of a phage display library.
- Variable infections with and serologic responses of rabbits to five different HIV-1 strains, including one neural tissue isolate.
- Identification and characterization of a new cross-reactive human immunodeficiency virus type 1-neutralizing human monoclonal antibody.
- Use of polymerase chain reaction technique to confirm VecTest screening results in Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax VK 210 laboratory-infected Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes.
