Absence of HTLV‐II Co‐infection in HTLV‐I‐associated Myelopathy Patients [PDF]

Japanese Journal of Cancer Research, 1992
Syncytium inhibition assay to distinguish between HTLV‐I and HTLV‐II infection was performed with sera and cerebrospinal fluid of 15 HTLV‐I‐associated myelopathy (HAM) patients. Also, genome analysis of HTLV‐II proviral DNA was performed in some HAM patients by use of the polymerase chain reaction method.

Development of Chimeric Antigen Receptor‐Modified NK Cells for the Immunotherapy of Adult T‐Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive hematological malignancy with a poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. ATL cells exhibit aberrant surface glycosylation patterns resulting from dysregulated glycosyltransferase expression, representing a potentially tumor‐specific therapeutic target.

Plasma Elastase Screening in Hematological Disease Reveals Its Potential as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Hematological Malignancies

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neutrophil‐extracellular traps are net‐like material released by triggered neutrophils and composed of decondensed chromatin linked to nuclear proteins. Elastase, one of the fourth most represented neutrophil‐specific serine proteases stored in azurophil granules of naïve neutrophils, exerts various actions, including degradation ...
