How Does Susceptibility to HTLV-1 Infection Varies With the Maturation State of Dendritic Cells?

Abstract: Keywords: dendritic cells • dendritic cell maturation • HTLV-1 infection • viral infectionHuman T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is the etiological agent of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy. In patients, the provirus is detected in CD4 + T cells. HTLV-1 also infects blood or monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) in vitro.
