HTLV-I Infections

1991
Retroviruses are involved in many naturally occurring neoplasms in various animal species. Their involvement in human neoplasias has been the subject of extensive research, but not until the early 1980s was definitive evidence obtained for casual association of human retroviruses with a certain human disease.

Possible association of HTLV-I infection and dementia

Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009
We report a Swedish patient with progressive dementia possibly associated with human T cell-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) infection. The clinical investigation revealed no typical sings of other neurological disorders. The patient was probably infected in East-Asia 35 years before onset of the disease.

Evidence of HTLV-I Infection in Singapore Prostitutes

International Journal of STD & AIDS, 1991
Sera obtained in 1987 from 63 male and 632 female Singapore prostitutes were screened for antibody to human T-cell leukaemia virus (HTLV)-I with a particle agglutination test. Of the 3 males and 4 females who were positive one had antibody to HTLV-I core and envelope antigen on Western Blot. Two subjects had presumptive antibody to HTLV-I core antigen

Extensive genital warts associated with HTLV-I infection

International Journal of STD & AIDS, 2004

Spastic paraparesis and HTLV-I infection in peru

Annals of Neurology, 1988
Three of 6 patients with spastic paraparesis in Lima, Peru, were found to have antibodies to human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I). Blood and cerebrospinal fluid antibodies were confirmed by Western blot analysis. Multilobulated lymphocytes in blood and cerebrospinal fluid of the index case stained with monoclonal antibodies for T-helper cells and

HTLV-I, infective dermatitis, and tropical spastic paraparesis

Molecular Neurobiology, 1994
Since human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV-I) was identified in 1980 as causing human disease, it has been etiologically associated with adult T-cell lymphoma/leukemia (ATL) and tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP). More recently, several new diseases have been reported in association with this virus, including infective dermatitis of Jamaican children,
