Editorial Commentary: Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) and HTLV-1–Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis
The human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is an oncogenic retrovirus that is transmitted from mother to child, particularly through prolonged breastfeeding; between sexual partners through unprotected intercourse; and from donors to recipients through transfusion and transplantation. Thirty-five years after its discovery, screening for HTLV-1 infection is at best patchy and mostly non...
متن کاملP 130: The Role of Host T- Cell Lymphocyte in Immunopathogenesis of HTLV-I-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is associated with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). Only a limited percentage of infected individuals develop disease in response to the virus while the majority remain asymptomatic and HAM/TSP is the most common clinical manifestation of the virus. HAM/TSP is an inflamma...
متن کاملHTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis with pseudohypoparathyroidism.
In many short-stature patients with human T-lymphotrophic virus type I-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), signs and symptoms were manifested during childhood. Successive investigations revealed 12 of 14 short-stature patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) from the findings of short metacarpi, parathyroid hormone infusion test, immunoblotting of erythrocyte membr...
متن کاملP 56: Inhibitory Effects of Curcumin, a Regulator of CD4+ T Helper Cell, on HTLV-1-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP)
Human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-1) is an endemic virus in Iran and other regions that is associated with multiple diseases including adult T-cell leukemia/ lymphoma and a chronic debilitating neuroinflammatory disease, HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). HAM/TSP is seen in approximately 2% of HTLV-1-infected people with symptoms such as back pain, weakne...
متن کاملIs Human T Cell Lymphotropic Type 1 (HTLV-1)-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP) Syndrome a Neglected Disease?
Human T cell lymphotropic type 1 (HTLV-1) was the first human retrovirus discovered and has been associated mainly with two illnesses [1], an inflammatory disease named HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), and a neoplastic condition called adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) [2]. Although this virus has worldwide distribution, Japan, Africa, the Caribbean basin,...
