Virus Markers Associated with Vertical Transmission of Human T Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 in Jamaica [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2002
In a prospective study involving 150 mothers and their offspring in Jamaica, we examined maternal viral factors associated with the risk of transmission of human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1). Overall, the incidence of HTLV-1 infection among children was 8.3 occurrences per 1000 person-months. A higher maternal provirus level (odds ratio [OR], 1.

Can thymic epithelial cells be infected by human T-lymphotropic virus type 1?

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2011
The human T-lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1) is the cause of adult T cell leukaemias/lymphoma. Because thymic epithelial cells (TEC) express recently defined receptors for the virus, it seemed conceivable that these cells might be a target for HTLV-1 ...

Dried plasma retains hemostatic function and thermal stability during Arctic military operations

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue S1, Page S159-S171, May 2026.
Abstract Background Dried plasma offers a practical alternative for remote damage control resuscitation, providing hemostatic support and volume replacement. The Arctic presents challenges that necessitate the need for blood‐based resuscitation to extend the “golden hour.” To address this, we evaluated the hemostatic and thermal stability of dried ...

Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) and Regulatory T Cells in HTLV-1-Associated Neuroinflammatory Disease

Viruses, 2011
Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a retrovirus that is the causative agent of adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) and associated with multiorgan inflammatory disorders, including HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/

Deceased donor ABO discrepancy due to a rare AwB subgroup: Implications for organ allocation

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 5, Page 952-956, May 2026.
Abstract Background Accurate ABO determination is critical for safe deceased donor organ allocation. Weak or variant ABO subgroups may not be reliably detected by routine serologic testing, especially under urgent conditions or following transfusion. Such limitations can result in discrepant ABO assignments with potential implications for transplant ...

Functional investigation of the RHD gene promoter: Molecular changes are rarely responsible for variant D phenotype in Thai donors

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 5, Page 957-963, May 2026.
Abstract Background While modern technology is increasingly available to identify efficiently the molecular alterations responsible for variant phenotype, a subset of samples still escapes those analyses. In addition to the promoter region, two intronic regions containing GATA1 binding sites within the RHD gene locus were recently shown to modulate the

HTLV-1, Immune Response and Autoimmunity

Viruses, 2015
Human T-lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1) infection is associated with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL). Tropical spastic paraparesis/HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (PET/HAM) is involved in the development of autoimmune diseases including Rheumatoid ...

How serious is the risk of HTLV-1 infection in Iranian hemodialysis-dependent patients?

BMC Nephrology
Objective The transmission of infectious agents through hemodialysis is one of this critical treatment’s most significant side effects. Human T-lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV-1) is an endemic oncogenic virus in Iran.

Prevalence of Human T Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 in Pregnant Women: a Narrative Review

Medical Laboratory Journal, 2020
Background and Objectives: Human T lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is a virus of the Retroviridae family, which has infected more than 20 million people around the world. The study aimed to review the prevalence of HTLV infection in pregnant women.
