Upregulation of HTLV‐1 and HTLV‐2 expression by HIV‐1 in vitro [PDF]
AbstractCo‐infections with HIV‐1 and the human T leukemia virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV‐1, HTLV‐2) occur frequently, particularly in large metropolitan areas where injection drug use is a shared mode of transmission. Recent evidence suggests that HIV‐HTLV co‐infections are associated with upregulated HTLV‐1/2 virus expression and disease. An in vitro model

The current diagnosis of human T-lymphotropic virus type-2 (HTLV-2) infection is based on the search of specific antibodies; nevertheless, several studies conducted in Brazil pointed deficiencies of the commercially available kits in detecting HTLV-2 ...

Introduction: Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) is endemic in Brazil, but few studies have investigated the seroprevalence of HTLV and its subtypes among blood donors in the capital city Manaus, Amazonas State, Brazil.

HTLV-1 prevalence according to age for 386 female and 334 male community residents.
HTLV-1 infection was confirmed for 218 participants, using HTLV-1 western blots (WB) and/or HTLV-1 PCR (WB positive/PCR positive, 209; indeterminate WB/PCR positive, 8; tested by dried blood spot, PCR positive, 1).

Absence of HTLV-1/2 infection and dermatological diseases in Manaus, State of Amazonas, Brazil
Introduction The prevalence of human T-cell lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) infection is heterogeneous across different populations. We tested the hypothesis that HTLV-1/2 infection occurs more often in dermatological patients.

Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection may cause serious disease, while pathogenicity of HTLV-2 is less certain. There are no screening or surveillance programs for HTLV-1/-2 infection in Brazil.

The discovery of the first human retrovirus: HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 [PDF]
AbstractI describe here the history leading up to and including my laboratory's discovery of the first human retrovirus, HTLV-I, and its close relative, HTLV-II. My efforts were inspired by early work showing a retroviral etiology for leukemias in various animals, including non-human primates.

Functional comparison of antisense proteins of HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 in viral pathogenesis [PDF]
The production of antisense transcripts from the 3' long terminal repeat (LTR) in human T-lymphotropic retroviruses has now been clearly demonstrated. After the identification of the antisense strand-encoded human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) bZIP (HBZ) factor, we reported that HBZ could interact with CRE-binding protein (CREB) transcription ...
