Concomitant augmentation of CD4+CD29+ helper inducer and diminution of CD4+CD45RA+ suppressor inducer subset in patients infected with human T cell lymphotropic virus types I or II

Abstract: SUMMARY To examine the immunomodulatory effects of HTLV infection, lymphocyte subset analysis was performed on patients infected with human T cell lymphotropic virus type‐I (HTLV‐I, n= 6) or ‐II (HTLV‐II, n= 12) and on normal blood donors (n= 16). The percentages of total B lymphocytes (CD19), natural killer (NK) cells (CDI6), T lymphocytes and their subsets (CD2, CD3, CD4, CD5, CD7, CDS), and IL‐2R (CD2S) were found to be within the range found in normal donors. However, the expression of CD8+ HLA‐DR+ increas… Show more

“…Because p300 is limited in cells, the expression of p300 in long-lived lymphocytes, such as memory T cells, would be particularly important for their survival. Interestingly, HTLV-1 has been demonstrated to target memory T cells (Yoshie et al, 2002;Lal et al, 1992). We demonstrate that ER localization of p12 I is required for its ability to increase p300.…”

“…Têm sido cada vez mais frequentes as investigações que avaliam se a associação destes dois tipos de retrovírus poderia resultar em aceleração da evolução para AIDS. Os resultados até o momento são controversos(230)(231)(232)(233).…”
