Detection of anti-HTLV-I Tax antibodies in HTLV-I enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-negative individuals. [PDF]
Blood, 1989 Abstract The HTLV-I tax gene protein (Tax) is not packaged within the mature viral particle from which the proteins for the commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) are derived. Screening of 162 individuals within a cohort of white intravenous (IV) drug abusers, previously identified as having an increased ...

Enhanced HIV-1 Neutralizing Antibody Breadth in HTLV-2 Co-Infected Individuals: Influence of Antiretroviral Regimen and B Cell Subset Distribution [PDF]
VaccinesBackground/Objectives: This study aimed to explore how HTLV-2 infection affects the production of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) in persons with HIV-1 (PWH) and to assess the impact of boosted protease inhibitors (PIs).

Serum antibodies to HTLV‐I in human demyelinating disease
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1987 — Serum HTLV‐I antibodies were measured in 17 MS patients and 2 closely matched control groups by 2 different independent assays. A highly sensitive particle agglutination test was used to detect HTLV‐I core protein antigens and an immunoblot assay with ...

Enzyme immunoassay with synthetic peptides to detect anti-HTLV-I antibodies.
Clinical Chemistry, 1992 Abstract We developed an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) system to detect antibodies to human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I). This system uses chemically synthesized oligopeptides to capture anti-HTLV-I antibodies in serum. The two epitopes of HTLV-I proteins exhibiting the most specific antigen-antibody reaction reside within amino acids

The tax-inducible actin-bundling protein fascin is crucial for release and cell-to-cell transmission of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) [PDF]
, 2016 The delta-retrovirus Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) preferentially infects CD4(+) T-cells via cell-to-cell transmission. Viruses are transmitted by polarized budding and by transfer of viral biofilms at the virological synapse (VS ...

Chemiluminescence Immunoassay to Detect Anti‐HTLV‐I Antibodies [PDF]
Japanese Journal of Cancer Research, 1993 A fully automated chemiluminescence immunoassay was developed for the detection of antibodies to HTLV‐I. We used partially purified viral antigens coated on small polystyrene beads together with acridinium ester‐labeled anti‐human immunoglobulin G mouse immunoglobulin G in this method.
