Transcription profile of cells infected with human T-cell leukemia virus type I compared with activated lymphocytes.

چکیده
Human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) is the etiologic agent for adult T-cell leukemia and the neurological disorder tropical spastic paraparesis/HTLV-I-associated myelopathy. CD4+ T lymphocytes, the primary hosts for HTLV-I, undergo a series of changes that lead to T-cell activation, immortalization, and transformation. To gain insight into the genetic differences between activated and HTLV-I-infected lymphocytes, we performed Affymetrix GeneChip analysis of activated and HTLV-I-infected cells. Using the Hu6800 GeneChip, we identified approximately 763 genes that had differentially regulated expression in at least three of five HTLV-I cell lines. Classification of these genes into functional groups including cellular receptors, kinases, phosphatases, cytokines, signal proteins, and transcription factors provides insight into genes and pathways that are differentially regulated during HTLV-I transformation.

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...

T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is the first known human retrovirus which belongs to oncovirus family. The virus has limited geographical prevalence and the north of Khorasan is one of the areas with endemic virus (2.3-3%). Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a malignant proliferation of the activated CD4+ T lymphocytes and is only found in patients belonging to areas where retroviru...

Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-I (HTLV-I) was the first human retrovirus associated with malignancy. The prevalence of HTLV-I infection varies significantly in different regions of the world. In this study, the prevalence of HTLV-I infection among ethnic Jews living in Shiraz, South of Iran, was investigated. 286 blood samples were obtained. HTLV-1 antibody assay on serum samples was d...
