Bovine leukemia virus p24 antibodies reflect blood proviral load [PDF]
Background Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is worldwide distributed and highly endemic in Argentina. Among the strategies to prevent BLV dissemination, a control plan based on the selective segregation of animals according to their proviral load (PVL) is ...

Evolution of HTLV-1 proviral load in patients from Salvador, Brazil
INTRODUCTION: Variations in human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) proviral load (PVL) in infected individuals over time are not well understood.

Quantification of HTLV-I proviral load in experimentally infected rabbits [PDF]
Background Levels of proviral load in HTLV-1 infected patients correlate with clinical outcome and are reasonably prognostic. Adaptation of proviral load measurement techniques is examined here for use in an experimental rabbit model of HTLV-1 infection.

Factors Associated with HIV-1 Proviral DNA Loads in Patients with Undetectable Plasma RNA Load [PDF]
To evaluate factors associated with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) proviral DNA load, we conducted a cross-sectional study of 36 chronically HIV-1-infected individuals with undetectable plasma viral RNA. We used real-time polymerase chain reaction to determine the number of HIV-1 proviral DNA copies per 10(6) peripheral blood mononuclear ...

Determination of proviral load in bovine leukemia virus–infected cattle with and without lymphocytosis [PDF]
Abstract Objective—To determine proviral load in bovine leukemia virus (BLV)–infected cattle with and without persistent lymphocytosis to assess the potential of transmitting the virus. Animals—Cattle in 6 dairy herds. Procedures—Blood samples from infected cows were evaluated 3 times at 6-month intervals for determination of proviral load via PCR ...

Background Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) proviral load is related to the development of HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) and has also been shown to be elevated in the peripheral blood in HTLV-1-infected ...

HIV-1 DNA proviral load in treated and untreated HIV-1 sero-positive patients [PDF]
As proviral human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) DNA can replenish and revive viral infection upon activation, its detection might offer significant therapeutic information, complementing the input provided by plasma RNA determination in the follow-up of infected individuals.

Carga proviral do HTLV-1 e HTLV-2: um método simples através da PCR quantitativa em tempo real HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 proviral load: a simple method using quantitative real-time PCR [PDF]
Os vírus linfotrópicos de células T humanas, quando integrados ao genoma da célula hospedeira, provírus, têm como marcador de replicação seu DNA proviral. A carga proviral parece ser um importante fator no desenvolvimento de patologias associadas a estes
