INTRODUCTION Human T cell lymphotropic virus type I-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) can impact the independence and motricity of patients. The aims of this study were to estimate the effects of physiotherapy on the functionality of patients with HAM/TSP during the stable phase of the disease using proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) and to compare two me...

discussion bladder over-distention and spontaneous bladder rupture, although very rare in ham/tsp, should be considered in a differential diagnosis of bladder rupture, especially in patients with a history of htlv1. introduction spontaneous bladder rupture is a rare manifestation of hyporeflexic bladder due to ham/tsp( human t-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (htlv1) associated myelopathy/tropica...

The role of human T-cell leukemia virus type II (HTLV-II) in human lymphoproliferative and hematopoietic abnormalities in which the retrovirus can be isolated is still elusive. Here we show that the C344 T-cell-derived lymphotropic HTLV-II type IIa Mo strain acts directly on CD34+ hematopoietic precursors by rescuing them from apoptosis induced by interleukin-3 (IL-3) deprivation. This effect i...

BACKGROUND Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a distinctive peripheral T- lymphocytic malignancy associated with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1). It may closely resemble other skin lymphomas, particularly mycosis fungoides (MF). CASE REPORT A 38-year-old woman presented some ellipsoid scaling patches lasting 18 months and developed a large tumoral lesion in the abdomen, ...

introduction genetic background has known to be associated with the outcome of human t cell lymphotropic virus (htlv) type i infection. in the present study we investigate the association between gm-csf gene polymorphisms with the outcome of htlv-i infection. materials and methods we analyzed 3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the promter region of granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating fa...

The aim of the present paper is to formulate two new mathematical models describe co-dynamics severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-I (HTLV-I) in a host. characterizes interplaying between seven compartments, uninfected ECs, latently SARS-CoV-2-infected actively free SARS-CoV-2 particles, CD4+T cells, HTLV-I-infected cells cells. i...

The discovery of lymphoid B-Iymphotropic herpesvirus-producing cell lines from M. arctoides peripheral lymphocytes (MAL-l) producing their own lymphotropic virus HVMA was reported earlier [1]. Subsequently, two more M. arctoides virus-producing lymphoid cell lines (MAL-2, MAL-3) were discovered in our laboratory. The cells of some baboon lymphoid cultures, parallel with B-Iymphotropic herpesvir...
