HTLV-I-SPECIFIC ANTIBODY IN AIDS PATIENTS AND OTHERS AT RISK

The Lancet, 1984
Serum samples from 440 acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients or individuals at risk for AIDS were examined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique for antibodies to HTLV-I core proteins. Specific antibodies were detected in 7% of AIDS patients, 7% of patients with lymphadenopathy, 0% of healthy homosexual men, and 12% of healthy

An inverse correlation of HTLV-I viral load in CSF and intrathecal synthesis of HTLV-I antibodies in TSP/HAM

Neurology, 1999
The authors measured human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type I (HTLV-I) proviral load and intrathecal synthesis of antibodies to HTLV-I in CSF of 13 Brazilian patients with tropical spastic paraparesis/ HTLV-I-associated myelopathy (HAM). The authors also measured HTLV-I proviral load in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of five of these patients and ...

HTLV‐I‐associated myelopathy: Oligoclonal immunoglobulin G bands contain anti‐HTLV‐I p24 antibody

Annals of Neurology, 1988
AbstractHuman T‐cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV‐I)‐associated myelopathy (HAM) and tropical spastic paraparesis belong to a new group of neurological diseases associated with retroviral infection. An HTLV‐I‐like virus has recently been implicated in multiple sclerosis as well.

Intrathecal synthesis of IgG antibodies to HTLV-I supports an etiological role for HTLV-I in tropical spastic paraparesis

Annals of Neurology, 1988
High titers of antibody to human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) have been reported in the sera and cerebrospinal fluids of patients with tropical spastic paraparesis. By means of agarose isoelectric focusing and selective immunoblotting, we demonstrated oligoclonal bands of immunoglobulin G antibodies to HTLV-I in the serum and cerebrospinal ...

[HTLV-I antibody screening of blood donors].

Beitrage zur Infusionstherapie = Contributions to infusion therapy, 1992
Routine screening of 344,266 blood donations of approximately 200,000 donors for anti-HTLV-I was done by enzyme immuno assay (EIA). Repeatedly reactive samples were confirmed by Western Blot (WB) and radio immuno precipitation assay (RIPA). The prevalence of anti-HTLV-I in Bavarian blood donors is 0.02-0.026%. The specificity of HTLV-I-EIA is 99.95%.

[Significance of anti-HTLV-I antibody in cerebrospinal fluid in diagnosis of HTLV-I associated myelopathy (HAM)].

Rinsho byori. The Japanese journal of clinical pathology, 1992
Anti-HTLV-I antibody was measured in 69 cerebrospinal fluids (CSFs) of cases with typical HTLV-I associated myelopathy (HAM) and other disorders whose symptoms were similar to HAM in order to evaluate the diagnostic significance of anti-HTLV-I antibody in CSF.
