Failure of dideoxynucleosides to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus replication in cultured human macrophages. [PDF]
Primary human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) were shown to have diminished deoxynucleoside kinase activities compared to T lymphoblasts, and a reduced ability to phosphorylate dideoxynucleosides with anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) activity ...

Overview: Viral Agents and Cancer. [PDF]
Substantial evidence indicates that several common viruses are clearly or probable causal factors in the etiology of specific malignancies. These viruses either normally establish latency or can become persistent infections.

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

Aquaporin-4 Antibodies Are Not Related to HTLV-1\ud Associated Myelopathy [PDF]
Introduction: The seroprevalence of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is very high among Brazilians (,1:200).\ud HTLV-1 associated myelopathy or tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is the most common neurological complication of\ud HTLV-1 ...

During homeostasis, CCL22 is secreted by dendritic cells (DC), which mediate contacts between regulatory T cells (Treg) and DC to maintain immune balance. Activation of innate immunity via microbes or pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists induces the secretion of several soluble factors (e.g., type I and II interferons, IL‐10), which mediate ...

Effect of Macrophages and Latent Reservoirs on the Dynamics of HTLV-I and HIV-1 Coinfection
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) are two retroviruses that have a similar fashion of transmission via sharp objects contaminated by viruses, transplant surgery, transfusion, and sexual relations ...

Perceptions of donor screening—Do I always need to tell the truth?
Abstract Background The Donor Health Assessment Questionnaire (DHQ) is fundamental to blood safety. We describe attitudes towards truthfulness among first‐time donors who tested positive for transfusion transmissible infections and those who did not.

Serologic Prevalence of Human T-Lymphotropic Virus (HTLV) among major Thalassemic Patients in Kermanshah 2010 [PDF]
Introduction: Transfusion-transmitted infections (TTI) continue to be a major challenge for Blood transfusion organizations in the world and multi- transfused patients (MTPs) are at higher risk of infection. HTLV-1 is a retrovirus that easily transmitted
