Is the innate bio-protection power against human virus the same between males and females? A conclusion based on blood donor data of HTLV-I infection [PDF]

, 2008
Human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) is a retrovirus that causes adult T-cell leukemia. The male-to-female transmission is stronger than the reverse, so the carrier proportion of women is greater than that of men.

T‐Cell Signaling Pathways, Including Exhaustion, Predominate in Unhealthy Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissues

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Obesity is an imperfect correlate of metabolic health. Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) characteristics are considered determinants of poor health and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) considered protective. There is a gap in knowledge regarding shared vs.

Pulmonary function testing in HTLV-I and HTLV-II infected humans: a cohort study

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2003
Background HTLV-I infection has been linked to lung pathology and HTLV-II has been associated with an increased incidence of pneumonia and acute bronchitis. However it is unknown whether HTLV-I or -II infection alters pulmonary function.

Clinical features and incidence of central nervous system involvement in patients with adult T‐cell leukaemia/lymphoma

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Central nervous system (CNS) involvement is a known complication of adult T‐cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATL), but its clinical characteristics and incidence still remain unclear. This study characterized the clinical features and incidence of CNS involvement in patients with ATL (CNS‐ATL).

Telomere Length, Proviral Load and Neurologic Impairment in HTLV-1 and HTLV-2-Infected Subjects. [PDF]

, 2016
Short or damaged telomeres have been implicated in degenerative conditions. We hypothesized that analysis of telomere length (TL) in human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) infection and HTLV-associated neuropathy might provide clues to the etiology of ...

Cas9 beyond CRISPR – SUMOylation, effector‐like potential and pathogenic adaptation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This Viewpoint explores the possibility that Cas9, beyond its canonical role in CRISPR immunity, may act as a host‐modulating effector during infection by Cas9‐encoding bacteria. Such a nucleomodulin‐like function could be influenced by eukaryotic post‐translational modifications, particularly SUMOylation, with potential implications for host–pathogen ...
