Functional impairment of Tax-specific but not cytomegalovirus-specific CD8+ T lymphocytes in a minor population of asymptomatic human T-cell leukemia virus type 1-carriers [PDF]
Background Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) causes adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) in a small percentage of infected individuals.

From Genomic and Epigenomic Maps to Medicines in Adult T‐Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma
ABSTRACT Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive and refractory hematologic malignancy that is caused by human T‐cell leukemia virus type‐1 (HTLV‐1) retrovirus. ATL results from a combination of viral latency and the accumulation of abnormalities throughout the genome, epigenome, transcriptome, and signaling pathways.

Repurposing of Chemokine Antagonists for Combined Phase‐Resolved Spinal Cord Injury Treatment
Spinal cord injury (SCI) in mammals is accompanied by a massive cytokine storm in cerebrospinal fluid, mainly driven by CXCL1, IL‐6, and CCL2‐5. Sub‐acute phase is mostly associated with IL‐2, IL‐7, CCL22, and CX3CL1, whereas TNFα and IL17α permanently persists in CNS even weeks following SCI.

PERFORMANCE OF THE GAIT IN INDIVIDUALS WITH HTLV-1: SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
HTLV-1 is frequently associated with myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), which in turn brings several functional alterations to the individual, including changes in gait.

Genotype-phenotype correlation in adult-onset acid maltase deficiency [PDF]
We performed a clinical, biochemical, and genetic study in 16 patients from 11 families with adult‐onset acid maltase deficiency. All patients were compound heterozygotes and carried the IVS1(– 13T→G) transversion on one allele; the second allele ...

Telomere Length, Proviral Load and Neurologic Impairment in HTLV-1 and HTLV-2-Infected Subjects. [PDF]
Short or damaged telomeres have been implicated in degenerative conditions. We hypothesized that analysis of telomere length (TL) in human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) infection and HTLV-associated neuropathy might provide clues to the etiology of ...

Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is the cause of endemic tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP) or HTLV-I-associated myelopathy (HAM). Because TSP/HAM is not a fatal disease, the neuropathology of this disease, albeit relatively well understood, is based on the examination of just a few incidental cases.

ABSTRACT Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) is a climate‐smart legume crop widely grown in Ethiopia, well‐known for its resilience to abiotic stresses, and serves as an insurance crop. Despite its ecological and agronomic benefits, the crop's market supply remains underexplored from both economic and sustainability perspectives.

Danazol a new perspective in the treatment of htlv-l associated myelopathy (preliminary report)
We investigated the efficacy of danazol treatment in eight patients with HTLV-l associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). Treatment with danazol yielded clinical improvement of urinary control and gait disturbances in 7 out of the 8 ...
