Human T-cell lymphotropic viruses 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) are relatively common in Brazil but
remain silent and neglected infections. HTLV-1 is associated with a range of diseases with …

The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a retrovirus causing an aggressive T-
cell malignancy, adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). Although HTLV-1 has a compact RNA genome …

Human T-cell leukemia virus-1 (HTLV-1) is the first pathogenic human retrovirus identified in
1979 by the Gallo group. HTLV-1 causes fatal T-cell leukemia (adult T cell leukemia) and a …

Human T cell leukemia/lymphoma virus Type 1 and 2 (HTLV-1 and HTLV-2), together with
their simian counterparts (STLV-1, STLV-2), belong to the Primate T lymphotropic viruses …

Human T-cell leukaemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) causes not only adult T-cell leukaemia-
lymphoma (ATL), but also inflammatory diseases including HTLV-1-associated …

HTLV-1 structural proteins do not appear to ensure virus transmission as efficiently as most
other retrovirus structural proteins do, whereas all other retroviruses can be transmitted via …

Since the discovery of the human T-cell leukemia virus-1 (HTLV-1), cellular and animal
models have provided invaluable contributions in the knowledge of viral infection …

Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection is a neglected disease despite
roughly 15 million people are chronically infected worldwide. Lifelong less than 10% of …

Risk of HAM/TSP depends on HTLV-1 proviral load 3. HTLV-1 proviral load is correlated
with the HTLV-1-specific CTL activity 4. HTLV-1 infection accelerates the turnover of both …

The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence and characterize the
epidemiologic patterns of HTLV‐1/2 infections and co‐infections with HIV, HBV (hepatitis B) …
