Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 infection

Best Practice & Research Clinical Haematology, 2000
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1) is aetiologically associated with adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATL). HTLV-1 infection can also lead to various non-malignant diseases, for example, HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis and HTLV-1 uveitis. HTLV-1 is endemic in southern Japan and the Caribbean.

Infection of defective human T-lymphotropic virus type 1

Human Cell, 2017
In a previous study, we reported that an identical defective provirus had integrated into multiple sites of the genome of a representative human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) cell line, MT-2. A possible explanation for this may be the repeated infection of this defective provirus to a cell.

Necrobiotic xanthogranuloma in a human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 carrier

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1992
A 67-year-old man who had necrobiotic xanthogranuloma associated with paraproteinemia is described. He was a human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) carrier who had a high titer of circulating anti-HTLV-1 antibodies and neurologic abnormalities that suggested HTLV-1-associated myelopathy.

[Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 uveitis in children].

Nippon Ganka Gakkai zasshi, 1997
We report here five pediatric patients with human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-I) uveitis. The patients were one boy and four girls aged between 3 and 14 years. The transmission route was considered to be breast feeding from their mothers. All patients had unilateral uveitis and the ocular symptoms were similar to those in HTLV-I uveitis in adults.

Mechanisms of human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 transmission and disease

Current Opinion in Virology, 2012
Human T-lymphotrophic virus type-1 (HTLV-1) infects approximately 15-20 million people worldwide, with endemic areas in Japan, the Caribbean, and Africa. The virus is spread through contact with bodily fluids containing infected cells most often from mother to child through breast milk or via blood transfusion.

Detection of antibodies to human T‐lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV‐1)

Transfusion, 1988
Sera from 39,898 blood donors were tested for HTLV‐1 antibodies using two enzyme immunoassays (EIA). Sera testing initially reactive (IR) were retested in duplicate by both EIAs. Sera testing repeatedly reactive (RR) were further tested by two Western blots (WB) and by two radioimmunoprecipitation assays (RIPA).

Effects of human T-lymphotropic virus type II on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 phenotypic evolution

Archives of Virology, 2001
Phenotypic change and broader coreceptor usage by HIV-1 have been associated with disease progression. HIV-1 coreceptor usage by primary isolates obtained from HIV-1-infected and HIV-1/HTLV-II-coinfected individuals was determined. HIV-1 was isolated from 15 of 20 HIV-1-infected and 17 of 24 HIV-1/HTLV-II-coinfected individuals.

Neurological manifestations of coinfection with HIV and human T-lymphotropic virus type 1

AIDS, 2012
HIV-individuals are at risk for human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV) coinfection and neurological diseases. Little is known about the impact of HAART among coinfected patients. In this study, 47 out of 428 HIV individuals were coinfected with HTLV (10.9%).

Micturitional Disturbance in Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type-1-Associated Myelopathy

Journal of Spinal Disorders, 1994
We reported the findings of micturitional histories and urodynamic studies in five patients with human T-lymphotropic virus type-1-associated myelopathy. Histories showed that all patients had obstructive as well as irritative micturitional symptoms, and four of their micturitional symptoms appeared from the onset of the disease.

Inhibition of Apoptosis by Human T‐Lymphotropic Virus Type‐1 Tax Protein

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003
Abstract: Deregulation of the apoptotic process can lead to pathophysiological changes that result in either degenerative diseases or cancer. Although the transactivator Tax has been established as an essential effector of human T‐lymphotropic virus type‐1 (HTLV‐1)‐mediated diseases, which include both a neurodegenerative pathology and leukemia ...
