Evaluation of HTLV-1 activity in HAM/TSP patients using proviral load and Tax mRNA expression after In Vitro lymphocyte activation [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2014
Objective(s):HTLV-1 is the first human retrovirus that has been recognized and is associated with HAM/TSP and ATLL. Studies have shown that less than five percent of HTLV-1 infected carriers develop HAM/TSP or ATLL and about ninety-five percent remain ...

Reducing bovine leukemia virus prevalence on a large midwestern dairy farm by using lymphocyte counts, ELISA antibody testing, and proviral load

Bovine Practitioner, 2020
Cattle infected with BLV have disrupted immune systems, associated with reduced milk production, shortened lifespan, and predisposition to lymphoma. The objective of this exploratory case study was to develop a disease control testing and management ...

Different patterns of HIV-1 DNA after therapy discontinuation

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2005
Background By persisting in infected cells for a long period of time, proviral HIV-1 DNA can represent an alternative viral marker to RNA viral load during the follow-up of HIV-1 infected individuals.

Transcriptome Analysis for Genes Associated with Small Ruminant Lentiviruses Infection in Goats of Carpathian Breed

Viruses, 2021
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) are economically important viral pathogens of sheep and goats. SRLV infection may interfere in the innate and adaptive immunity of the host, and genes associated with resistance or susceptibility to infection with SRLV ...

The transcriptome of HTLV-1-infected primary cells following reactivation reveals changes to host gene expression central to the proviral life cycle.

PLoS Pathogens, 2023
Infections by Human T cell Leukaemia Virus type 1 (HTLV-1) persist for the lifetime of the host by integrating into the genome of CD4+ T cells. Proviral gene expression is essential for proviral survival and the maintenance of the proviral load, through ...

Dynamic interaction between STLV-1 proviral load and T-cell response during chronic infection and after immunosuppression in non-human primates. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
We used mandrills (Mandrillus sphinx) naturally infected with simian T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (STLV-1) as a model for evaluating the influence of natural STLV-1 infection on the dynamics and evolution of the immune system during chronic infection ...

Revisiting Keratoconjunctivitis sicca associated with Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1: prevalence, clinical aspects and proviral load. [PDF]

Braz J Infect Dis, 2019
Background The prevalence of keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS) associated with Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) (HTLV-1/KCS) has been estimated at around 37%, but its clinical manifestations are poorly described.

Prior Virus Exposure Alters the Long-Term Landscape of Viral Replication during Feline Lentiviral Infection

Viruses, 2011
We developed a feline model of lentiviral cross-species transmission using a puma lentivirus (PLV or FIVPco) which infects domestic cats but does not cause disease.

Removing bovine leukemia virus infected animals with high proviral load leads to lowering within-herd prevalence and new case reduction.

Journal of Dairy Science
Bovine leukosis is prevalent in the North American dairy industry and its effect on animal health and production is widely documented. However, not all bovine leukemia virus (BLV) infected animals transmit the virus equally.

Immunological profile of HTLV-1-infected patients associated with infectious or autoimmune dermatological disorders. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
In the present study, the frequency, the activation and the cytokine and chemokine profile of HTLV-1 carriers with or without dermatological lesions were thoroughly described and compared.
