Origin of Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 in Rural Côte d’Ivoire [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 Simian T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (STLV-1) strains occasionally infect humans. However, the frequency of such infections is unknown. We show that direct transmission of STLV-1 from nonhuman primates to humans may be responsible for a substantial ...

Human T lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2: a point of view [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2013 Reported at the beginning of the 1980s, Human T lymphotropic viruses type 1 and 2 (HTLV1, HTLV 2) were the first retroviruses to have been detected in human beings. HTLV 1 was isolated from adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and first described by Takatsuki et al. in Japan in 1976, as a malignancy that only affects T cells and only in adults(1, 2).
