The Prevalence of Human T-Cell lymphotropic Virus Type 1 in Pregnant Women and Their Newborns [PDF]

ISRN Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2012
The prevalence of HTLV1 virus antibodies was determined in pregnant women and their neonates in Mashhad, northeast of Iran, as shown in this prospective cross-sectional study. 407 women who were hospitalized for delivery participated in this study. Venous blood sampling of pregnant women and umbilical cord of their neonates was done.

Adult T-Cell Leukemia-Lymphoma during Pregnancy

Case Reports in Oncological Medicine, 2013
Adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATL) is an uncommon highly aggressive T-cell lymphoma associated with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection. It is rarely encountered during pregnancy and is particularly challenging to treat due to its

Pathways of cell-cell transmission of HTLV-1

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
The deltaretroviruses human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 2 (HTLV-2) have long been believed to differ from retroviruses in other genera by their mode of transmission.

Lymphotropic Viruses: Chronic Inflammation and Induction of Cancers

Biology, 2020
Inflammation induced by transcription factors, including Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription (STATs) and NF-κB, in response to microbial pathogenic infections and ligand dependent receptors stimulation are critical for controlling ...

Can thymic epithelial cells be infected by human T-lymphotropic virus type 1?

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2011
The human T-lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1) is the cause of adult T cell leukaemias/lymphoma. Because thymic epithelial cells (TEC) express recently defined receptors for the virus, it seemed conceivable that these cells might be a target for HTLV-1 ...

Human T Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 and Human T Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 2 Mortality in the Shipibo-Konibo People

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene
ABSTRACT. High rates of human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and human T cell lymphotropic virus type 2 (HTLV-2) infections have been reported among Andean and Amazonian Peruvian indigenous populations in Peru. The Shipibo-Konibo people are the third-largest Amazonian indigenous group living in Peru.

Detection of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 in plasma samples

Virus Research, 2012
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is an RNA virus responsible for diseases such as HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL). Cell-to-cell contact and Tax-induced clonal expansion of infected cells are the main modes of virus replication, making virus detection during the ...

Simian T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 from Mandrillus sphinx as a Simian Counterpart of Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Subtype D [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1998
ABSTRACT A recent serological and molecular survey of a semifree-ranging colony of mandrills ( Mandrillus sphinx ) living in Gabon, central Africa, indicated that 6 of 102 animals, all males, were infected with simian T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (STLV-1).

Oncoviruses: Induction of cancer development and metastasis by increasing anoikis resistance

Heliyon, 2023
The phenomenon of cell death is a vital aspect in the regulation of aberrant cells such as cancer cells. Anoikis is a kind of cell death that occurs when cells get separated from the extracellular matrix. Some cancer cells can inhibit anoikis in order to

Human T Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Infection Among U.S. Thalassemia Patients [PDF]

AIDS Research and Human Retroviruses, 2013
Thalassemia is an inherited genetic disorder requiring multiple transfusions to treat anemia caused by low hemoglobin levels. Thus, thalassemia patients are at risk for infection with blood-borne pathogens, including human T cell lymphotropic viruses (HTLV) that are transmitted by transfusion of cellular blood products. Here, we examined the prevalence
