HTLV-1 infections.
Human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) causes disabling and fatal diseases, yet there is no vaccine, no satisfactory treatment, and no means of assessing the risk of disease or prognosis in infected people. Recent research on the molecular virology and immunology of HTLV-1 shows the importance of the host's immune response in reducing the risk of these diseases, and is beginning to explain ...
متن کاملOpportunistic Infections in Patients with HTLV-1 Infection
As an acquired immunodeficiency, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is primarily responsible for opportunistic infections in infected patients. However, opportunistic infections also occur in individuals with human T cell lymphotrophic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection. Here, we report opportunistic infections in two Japanese HTLV-1-seropositive patients. The first patient was a 67-year...
متن کاملComplex role of microRNAs in HTLV-1 infections
Human T-lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV-1) was the first human retrovirus to be discovered and is the causative agent of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) and the neurodegenerative disease HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). The importance of microRNA (miRNA) in the replicative cycle of several other viruses, as well as in the progression of associated pathologies...

چکیده عفونت با ویروس سلول T لنفوتروپیک انسانی( HTLV-1 ) در برخی از مناطق دنیا اندمیک م یباشد که یکی از مناطق شیوع آن در خراسان م یباشد. یکی از درگیری های این ویروس درگیری چشمی م یباشد. تظاهرات شناخته شده چشمی این ویروس شامل انفیلتراسیون بدخیمی در بیماران با لوکمی /لنفوم T سل بالغین، دژنراسیون شبکیه، درگیری نوروافتالمیک، واسکولیت و اگزودا در پریفر شبکیه، کراتو کونژکتویت سیکا - به خصوص در بیماران...
متن کاملHTLV-1/-2 and HIV-1 co-infections: retroviral interference on host immune status
The human retroviruses HIV-1 and HTLV-1/HTLV-2 share similar routes of transmission but cause significantly different diseases. In this review we have outlined the immune mediated mechanisms by which HTLVs affect HIV-1 disease in co-infected hosts. During co-infection with HIV-1, HTLV-2 modulates the cellular microenvironment favoring its own viability and inhibiting HIV-1 progression. This is ...
