Gut Microbiome Dysbiosis is Associated With Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) Infection and Disease Progression to HTLV-1-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
We provide the first comprehensive analysis of changes in the gut bacteriome at different clinical stages of HTLV‐1 infection. HTLV‐1 infection is associated with a dysbiosis that includes reduced bacterial diversity and an inverted Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio.

From Genomic and Epigenomic Maps to Medicines in Adult T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive and refractory hematologic malignancy that is caused by human T‐cell leukemia virus type‐1 (HTLV‐1) retrovirus. ATL results from a combination of viral latency and the accumulation of abnormalities throughout the genome, epigenome, transcriptome, and signaling pathways.

No genetic evidence for involvement of Deltaretroviruses in adult patients with precursor and mature T-cell neoplasms [PDF]
Background The Deltaretrovirus genus comprises viruses that infect humans (HTLV), various simian species (STLV) and cattle (BLV). HTLV-I is the main causative agent in adult T-cell leukemia in endemic areas and some of the simian T-cell lymphotropic ...
