Incomplete myelopathy and human T cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1)

Journal of NeuroVirology, 2018
This was a cross-sectional prospective study. We performed a multivariate statistical analysis of the neurological signs and symptoms of patients infected with human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) in an attempt to separate them into distinct groups and identify clinical-neurological manifestations that could differentiate the various ...

Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Infection

2012
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) was the first retrovirus to be identified as pathogenic in humans. Since its discovery in 1980 and its association with a progressive myelopathy termed HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) in 1985, there has been accumulating evidence that HTLV-1 can cause multiple ...

Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Types 1 and 2

2016
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) was the first pathogenic human retrovirus to be discovered. It was isolated in 1979 from the peripheral blood lymphocytes of a patient with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) (1). Following years of research to find a retroviral agent involved in ATLL, Yoshida and Yamamato isolated a retrovirus from an

Ocular manifestations of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 infection

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2003
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection is endemic in Japan, the Caribbean islands, and parts of Central Africa and South America. Known ophthalmic manifestations of HTLV-1 include malignant infiltrates in patients with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, retinal degeneration, neuroophthalmic disorders, and keratoconjunctivitis sicca in ...

Human T Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Viral Load Variability and Long-Term Trends in Asymptomatic Carriers and in Patients with Human T Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1-Related Diseases

AIDS Research and Human Retroviruses, 2013
Human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) proviral load (PVL) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) is high in patients with adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma or HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) and in some asymptomatic carriers, but fluctuates.

Prevention of Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Infection and Adult T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma

2013
Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a highly aggressive peripheral T-cell malignancy that develops after long-term chronic infection with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1). Despite the recent advances in chemotherapy, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT), and supportive care, the prognosis for patients with ...

Adult‐type T‐cell lymphoma in an adolescent with human T‐lymphotropic virus type 1 seropositivity

Medical and Pediatric Oncology, 1989
AbstractRecently, a form of T‐cell lymphoma associated with seropositivity for human T‐lymphotrop virus type 1 (HTLV‐1) antibody has been described in the adult population. The lymphoma frequently presents with massive hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy and circulating malignant cells, with a normal bone marrow.
