Adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATLL) and T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV1)
Epidemiology The disease has a long latency, and affected individuals usually are exposed to the virus very early in life. The virus may be transmitted in breast milk, and through exposure to blood and blood products. The cumulative incidence of ATLL is estimated to be 2.5% among HTLV-1 carriers in Japan (1). Sporadic cases have been found in the United State and elsewhere. It occurs in adults ...
متن کاملSynergy between parthenolide and arsenic trioxide in adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma cells in vitro
Objective(s): Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is an aggressive lymphoid malignancy with low survival rate and distinct geographical distribution. In search for novel chemotherapeutics against ATLL, we investigated the combinatorial effects of parthenolide, a sesquiterpene lactone with valuable pharmaceutical activities, and arsenic trioxide (ATO) in vitro</em...
متن کاملStevens-Johnson Syndrome Associated with Mogamulizumab-induced Deficiency of Regulatory T cells in an Adult T-cell Leukaemia Patient.
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a rare but extremely severe drug-induced eruption characterised by widespread necrosis or apoptosis of the epidermis (1). The main causal factor for SJS is an aberrant activation of CD8 T cells. Although the dysfunction of the regulatory T cells (Treg) is considered a possible cause of excess CD8 T cells activation (2), the actual significance of Tregs in vivo ...
متن کاملSpecific cutaneous manifestations in adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma
Background and aim: Adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is an aggresive malignancy which may occur in human T lymphotropic virus1(HTLV1) infected persons. HTLV1 is endemic in Khorasan with prevalence of 2.3% in general population. Since specific cutaneous manifestations of lymphoma may occur in a significant number of patients, we studied ATLL patients in Mashhad.Mate...
متن کاملAutocrine growth of interleukin 2-producing leukemic cells in a patient with adult T cell leukemia.
Leukemic cells in the peripheral blood of a patient with adult T cell leukemia (ATL), which expressed the Tac antigen/interleukin 2 (IL2) receptor, were investigated in vitro for autocrine growth by IL 2. The cells showed spontaneous proliferation in mitogen-free medium. The spontaneous proliferation of the cells was inhibited by monoclonal anti-IL 2 or anti-Tac antibody. These cells were found...
