Prevalence of human T-cell lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 in blood donors of the Caruaru Blood Center (Hemope)

Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2013
BACKGROUND: There is difficulty in gathering data on the prevalence of human T-cell lymphotropic virus in blood donors as confirmatory testing is not mandatory in Brazil. This suggests there may be an underreporting of the prevalence.

Rhesus blood group haplotype determination by nanopore sequencing and adaptive sampling enables the precise determination of complex allele combinations that could not be accurately determined by standard methods

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 1058-1069, June 2026.
Abstract Background Patients with chronic transfusion needs such as those with sickle cell disease face a high risk of developing antibodies against high‐prevalence antigens in the RH blood group system, complicating transfusion therapy and potentially necessitating stem cell transplantation.

An in‐house nucleic acid test for detection of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in whole blood donor samples

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 1122-1129, June 2026.
Abstract Background Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a tick‐borne pathogen that causes anaplasmosis. Increased incidences of this disease in Canada and cases of transfusion‐transmitted anaplasmosis in the United States have been reported. Currently, there are no Health Canada licensed methodologies available for detection of A.

HLA-Associated viral mutations are common in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 elite controllers

, 2009
Elite controllers (EC) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HTV-1) maintain viremia below the limit of detection without antiretroviral treatment. Virus-specific cytotoxic CD8+ T lymphocytes are believed to play a crucial role in viral containment ...

Telomere Length, Proviral Load and Neurologic Impairment in HTLV-1 and HTLV-2-Infected Subjects

Viruses, 2016
Short or damaged telomeres have been implicated in degenerative conditions. We hypothesized that analysis of telomere length (TL) in human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) infection and HTLV-associated neuropathy might provide clues to the etiology of ...
