The human HTLV-3 and HTLV-4 retroviruses: New members of the HTLV family

open access: yesPathologie Et Biologie, 2009
Human T cell leukemia/lymphoma virus Type 1 and 2 (HTLV-1 and HTLV-2), together with their simian counterparts (STLV-1, STLV-2), belong to the Primate T lymphotropic viruses group (PTLV). HTLV-1 infects 15 to 20million people worldwide, while STLV-1 is endemic in a number of simian or ape species living in Africa or Asia.

Considerable progress is being made in the understanding of at least two diseases associated with HTLV-I, ATLL and TSP. While laboratory methodology has not yet permitted comparable advances in identifying diseases associated with HTLV-II, if any, it is likely that a greater understanding of this and other retroviruses will result from the increasing ...

HTLV infection and the eye

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2012
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) is the first discovered retrovirus causing malignancy in human. HTLV infection affects host's ocular tolerance and causes various diseases in the eye.
