Abstract:
HTLV-I, the etiological agent in adult T-cell leukemia, has also been strongly implicated in a number of non-neoplastic T-cell-associated diseases. Here, Junji Yodoi and Takashi Uchiyama review these associations and focus on the emerging concepts of IL-2R dysregulation and redox regulation by adult T-cell leukemia-derived factor in the pathogenesis of HTLV-I-related diseases.
