Variant Human T-cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1c and Adult T-cell Leukemia, Australia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 is endemic to central Australia among Indigenous Australians. However, virologic and clinical aspects of infection remain poorly understood.

Implementation of nationwide screening of pregnant women for HTLV-1 infection in Japan: analysis of a repeated cross-sectional study

BMC Public Health, 2020
Background Screening of pregnant women carrying human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) has a crucial role in reducing the number of HTLV-1 carriers. A national HTLV-1 screening program for pregnant women was started in 2011 in Japan.

Human T Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 protein Tax reduces histone levels

Retrovirology, 2008
Background Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type-1 (HTLV-1) is an oncogenic retrovirus that causes adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL). The virally encoded Tax protein is thought to be necessary and sufficient for T-cell leukemogenesis.

Structural basis for the inhibition of HTLV-1 integration inferred from cryo-EM deltaretroviral intasome structures

Nature Communications, 2021
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is an oncogenic deltaretrovirus. Here the authors provide structural characterization of the binding mechanism of novel integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) candidates to limit HTLV-1 infection.

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.

Cryo-EM structure of the deltaretroviral intasome in complex with the PP2A regulatory subunit B56γ

Nature Communications, 2020
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a pathogenic deltaretrovirus. Here the authors resolve the cryo-EM structure of the deltaretroviral intasome in complex with the human host PP2A regulatory subunit.

Human T lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2: a point of view [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2013
Reported at the beginning of the 1980s, Human T lymphotropic viruses type 1 and 2 (HTLV1, HTLV 2) were the first retroviruses to have been detected in human beings. HTLV 1 was isolated from adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and first described by Takatsuki et al. in Japan in 1976, as a malignancy that only affects T cells and only in adults(1, 2).

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)
