ABSTRACT Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) infects cattle, integrates into the host genome as a provirus, and induces a persistent infection that remains asymptomatic but can cause leukaemia/lymphoma. Most BLV‐infected cell clones are created by massive depletion, and a few of these infected cell clones expand through the mitotic cycle, leading to the onset

Zika virus surveillance post‐epidemic in blood donors from São Paulo, Brazil 2016–2020
Abstract Introduction Zika virus (ZIKV) is primarily transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, though transmission via blood transfusion has also been documented. During the 2015 ZIKV epidemic in Brazil, severe complications were observed in pregnant women, leading to fetal microcephaly. This study evaluated the persistence of ZIKV in

Expression of interleukin 2 receptors on activated human B cells. [PDF]
Using anti-Tac, a monoclonal anti-interleukin 2 (IL-2) receptor antibody, we have explored the possibility that certain activated B cells display receptors for IL-2.

Absence of ZAP-70 prevents signaling through the antigen receptor on peripheral blood T cells but not on thymocytes. [PDF]
Recently, a severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome with a deficiency of CD8+ peripheral T cells and a TCR signal transduction defect in peripheral CD4+ T cells was associated with mutations in ZAP-70.

Human T-lymphotropic virus types I and II (HTLV-I and -II) cause myelopathy; HTLV-I, but not HTLV-II, causes adult T-cell leukemia. Whether HTLV-II is associated with other diseases is unknown.

Gem-induced cytoskeleton remodeling increases cellular migration of HTLV-1-infected cells, formation of infected-to-target T-cell conjugates and viral transmission [PDF]
Efficient HTLV-1 viral transmission occurs through cell-to-cell contacts. The Tax viral transcriptional activator protein facilitates this process. Using a comparative transcriptomic analysis, we recently identified a series of genes up-regulated in HTLV-

Modeling HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 co-infection dynamics
With the increasing prevalence of viral infections, the human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV) is becoming a focal point of research. Of the four identified strains, HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 are particularly associated with various health issues.

Cellular factors involved in HTLV-1 entry and pathogenicity
Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is the causative agent of adult T cell leukemia (ATL) and HTLV-1–associated myelopathy and tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP).

Sexual transmission of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 [PDF]
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is endemic in many parts of the world and is primarily transmitted through sexual intercourse or from mother to child.
