Upregulation of Neuropilin-1 Inhibits HTLV-1 Infection

Pathogens, 2023
Infection with human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) can produce a spectrum of pathological effects ranging from inflammatory disorders to leukemia. In vivo, HTLV-1 predominantly infects CD4+ T-cells.

HLA alleles determine human T-lymphotropic virus-I (HTLV-I) proviral load and the risk of HTLV-I-associated myelopathy [PDF]

, 1999
The risk of disease associated with persistent virus infections such as HIV-I, hepatitis B and C, and human T-lymphotropic virus-I (HTLV-I) is strongly determined by the virus load.

No genetic evidence for involvement of Deltaretroviruses in adult patients with precursor and mature T-cell neoplasms [PDF]

, 2007
Background The Deltaretrovirus genus comprises viruses that infect humans (HTLV), various simian species (STLV) and cattle (BLV). HTLV-I is the main causative agent in adult T-cell leukemia in endemic areas and some of the simian T-cell lymphotropic ...

Respiratory and Urinary Tract Infections, Arthritis, and Asthma Associated with HTLV-I and HTLV-II Infection

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Human T-lymphotropic virus types I and II (HTLV-I and -II) cause myelopathy; HTLV-I, but not HTLV-II, causes adult T-cell leukemia. Whether HTLV-II is associated with other diseases is unknown.

Clinical and immunological consequences of human T cell leukemia virus type-I and Schistosoma mansoni co-infection

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2004
Human T cell leukemia virus type-I (HTLV-I) infection is associated with spontaneous T cell activation and uncontrolled lymphocyte proliferation. An exacerbated type-1 immune response with production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interferon-gamma and ...

HTLV‐I Uveitis: A Distinct Clinical Entity Caused by HTLV‐I [PDF]

Japanese Journal of Cancer Research, 1992
Seroepidemiological, clinical and virological studies were carried out in an HTLV‐I endemic area to find out if HTLV‐I caused an intraocular inflammatory disorder, uveitis. The seroprevalence in patients with uveitis without defined etiologies (62/175, 35.4%) was significantly higher than that in patients with non‐uveitic ocular diseases (42/261, 16.1%)

Cholesterol dependence of HTLV-I infection [PDF]

, 2005
Cholesterol-rich plasma membrane microdomains are important for entry of many viruses, including retro-viruses. Depletion of cholesterol with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inhibits entry of human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-1) and HTLV-I envelope

DETECTION OF HTLV-I ANTIBODIES AND DNA IN BLOOD SAMPLE OF A PATIENT WITH MYELOPATHY IN NIGERIA

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1998
We describe a case of human T-lymphotropic virus type I associated myelopathy in a 50-year old woman in Nigeria. The patient presented with progressive loss of tone to the two lower limbs and later inability to walk.

High prevalence of bronchiectasis is linked to HTLV-1-associated inflammatory disease. [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), a retrovirus, is the causative agent of HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) and adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATLL).
