Diseases caused by human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)

Microbiology Independent Research Journal
INTRODUCTION: Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) belongs to the Retroviridae family (genus Deltaretrovirus ) and is directly involved in carcinogenesis. The HTLV-1 genome is represented by plus-strand RNA, which is transcribed into proviral DNA

Prevalence of residual risks of the transfusion-transmitted infections in Riyadh hospitals: A two-year retrospective study

Open Chemistry, 2023
This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and trends of transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) in two hospitals in Riyadh, as well as to judge the best type of tests to ensure blood transfusion safety. By using serological and nucleic acid test (NAT)

Human Milk Practices in Swedish Neonatal Units: Results From a Nationwide Survey

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 5, Page 1048-1062, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The aim of this study was to describe the routines for handling mother's own milk and donor human milk in Swedish neonatal care units related to national guidelines. Methods A web‐based survey of 24 of 38 neonatal units and 19 of 28 human milk banks in Sweden. Results Despite national guidelines, breast milk handling varied widely.

Defective human T‐lymphotropic virus type 1 provirus in asymptomatic carriers [PDF]

International Journal of Cancer, 2011
AbstractFew studies have specifically examined defective provirus in asymptomatic human T‐lymphotropic virus Type 1 (HTLV‐1) carriers and its relation to proviral DNA loads (PVLs). To assess the significance of defective provirus in asymptomatic carriers, we examined PVLs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 208 asymptomatic HTLV‐1 carriers.

Is the innate bio-protection power against human virus the same between males and females? A conclusion based on blood donor data of HTLV-I infection [PDF]

, 2008
Human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) is a retrovirus that causes adult T-cell leukemia. The male-to-female transmission is stronger than the reverse, so the carrier proportion of women is greater than that of men.

Prevalence and risk factors for Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) among maintenance hemodialysis patients [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Infection with the human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), although asymptomatic in most cases, can lead to potentially grave consequences, such as adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy / tropical spastic ...

Neuroinflammation as a result of non‐neurotropic herpesvirus infection

Immunology &Cell Biology, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page 443-451, May‐June 2026.
Atypical memory B cells (ABCs) might stimulate autoreactive T cells to cause neuroinflammation and CNS myeloid cell activation during MS. Abstract The non‐neurotropic Epstein Barr virus (EBV) has been suggested to initiate the prodromal phase of multiple sclerosis (MS), often years before the first clinical symptoms. This review discusses mechanisms by

The tax-inducible actin-bundling protein fascin is crucial for release and cell-to-cell transmission of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) [PDF]

, 2016
The delta-retrovirus Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) preferentially infects CD4(+) T-cells via cell-to-cell transmission. Viruses are transmitted by polarized budding and by transfer of viral biofilms at the virological synapse (VS ...

Pathogen‐reduced platelet concentrates in France: Impact on the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infections, 2017–2024

Vox Sanguinis, Volume 121, Issue 5, Page 581-586, May 2026.
Abstract Background and Objectives Pathogen reduction (PR) using amotosalen‐UVA was implemented for 100% of platelet concentrates (PCs) in France in November 2017. No bacterial testing was in place earlier. The impact of PR on the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs) from November 2017 to December 2022 (vs.
