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.

Serological Evidence of HTLV-I and HTLV-II Coinfections in HIV-1 Positive Patients in Belém, State of Pará, Brazil

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1998
The occurrence of HTLV-I/II and HIV-1 coinfections have been shown to be frequent, probably in consequence of their similar modes of transmission. This paper presents the prevalence of coinfection of HTLV among HIV-1 infected and AIDS patients in Belém ...

Seroprevalence of HIV, HTLV-I/II and other perinatally-transmitted pathogens in Salvador, Bahia Soroprevalência do HIV, HTLV-I/II e outros patógenos de transmissão perinatal em Salvador, Bahia

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1995
Generation of epidemiological data on perinatally-transmitted infections is a fundamental tool for the formulation of health policies. In Brazil, this information is scarce, particularly in Northeast, the poorest region of the country.

Dynamic Allostery in T Cell Receptor Specificity: A Role for Peptides and MHC Polymorphisms in Allosterically Tuning Immune Recognition

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 3, March 2026.
Along with peptides, MHC polymorphisms allosterically tune peptide energy landscapes, altering conformational dynamics and T cell receptor recognition. This dynamic allostery mechanism explains how subtle polymorphic differences drive differential immune specificity across individuals and populations.

Prevalence and risk factors for Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) among maintenance hemodialysis patients [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Infection with the human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), although asymptomatic in most cases, can lead to potentially grave consequences, such as adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy / tropical spastic ...

Mechanistic role of GNE‐987 targeting BRD4‐HCP5 axis in pediatric T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract This study aims to explore the mechanism of action of the Bromodomain‐containing protein 4 (BRD4) inhibitor GNE‐987 in the treatment of pediatric T‐cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T‐ALL), focusing on its effect in inhibiting T‐ALL cell proliferation by activating the HLA Complex P5 (HCP5) Super‐enhancer.
