Origin of Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 in Rural Côte d’Ivoire

open access: yesEmerging 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 Type 1 (HTLV-1): Molecular Biology and Oncogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2010
Human T lymphotropic viruses (HTLVs) are complex deltaretroviruses that do not contain a proto-oncogene in their genome, yet are capable of transforming primary T lymphocytes both in vitro and in vivo.

Human T lymphotropic virus type 1 uveitis. [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Ophthalmology, 1994
The human retroviruses, HTLV-I and HIV, are playing clinically important roles in a variety of ocular disorders, particularly in uveitis. Both viruses are integrated in the genome of infected T cells. HIV-I infection causes the death of the infected T cells, thereby affecting the host defence system and causing AIDS. Subsequent opportunistic infections

Cerebellitis in a human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 carrier: a case report. [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Rep, 2021
Human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is a retrovirus associated with adult T-cell lymphoma (ATL) and HTLV-I-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). In addition to HAM/TSP and ATL, HTLV-I-associated encephalopathy and cerebellar involvement have been reported.

Juvenile Human T Lymphotropic Virus Type 1–Associated Myelopathy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2002
We report the cases of 5 adolescents with human T lymphotropic virus type 1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis, acquired in all but 1 case from the mother. The first symptom in all patients was difficulty in running, which was present for many years before the final diagnosis was made.

HTLV-1 and Co-infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a retrovirus that causes lifelong T-cell infection in humans, impacting the host immune response. This virus causes a range of clinical manifestations, from inflammatory conditions, including neuronal damage (

Comparative performances of serologic and molecular assays for detecting human T lymphotropic virus type 1 and type 2 (HTLV-1 and HTLV-2) in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2017
The present study evaluated several techniques currently available (commercial kits and in-house assays) for diagnosing human T lymphotropic viruses types 1 and 2 in two groups of patients enrolled at HIV/AIDS specialized care services in São Paulo ...

Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Infection in a Patient with Arthritis in Mozambique: Molecular Characterization of Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Isolate [PDF]

open access: yesAIDS Research and Human Retroviruses, 2011
Editor: Last year, we published the results from a cross-sectional survey on the prevalence of human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) in individuals from public health centers in Mozambique.1 Briefly, we observed an overall HTLV-1/2 prevalence of 2.3% (2.9% in female and 1.1% in male subjects) that increased with age, and a regional ...
