Inhibition of HIV Type 1 Replication by Human T Lymphotropic Virus Types 1 and 2 Tax Proteins in Vitro [PDF]

AIDS Research and Human Retroviruses, 2013
Patients with HIV-1 and human T-lymphotropic virus type 2 (HTLV-2) coinfections often exhibit a clinical course similar to that seen in HIV-1-infected individuals who are long-term nonprogressors. These findings have been attributed in part to the ability of HTLV-2 to activate production of antiviral chemokines and to downregulate the CCR5 coreceptor ...

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.

Resistance to Fas-Mediated Apoptosis of Human T-Cell Lines Expressing Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type-2 (HTLV-2) Tax Protein

Virology, 2001
The susceptibility to Fas-mediated apoptosis was evaluated in seven T-cell lines (two infected with HTLV-2, one with HTLV-1, and four HTLV-free) as well as in Jurkat cells transfected with a Tax-2 expressing vector. Fas-mediated apoptosis was significantly reduced in the HTLV-1- and HTLV-2-infected lines in comparison with the HTLV-free lines ...

ORIGIN AND PREVALENCE OF HUMAN T-LYMPHOTROPIC VIRUS TYPE 1 (HTLV-1) AND TYPE 2 (HTLV-2) AMONG INDIGENOUS POPULATIONS IN THE AMERICAS [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2015
Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is found in indigenous peoples of the Pacific Islands and the Americas, whereas type 2 (HTLV-2) is widely distributed among the indigenous peoples of the Americas, where it appears to be more prevalent than HTLV-1, and in some tribes of Central Africa.
