Morphological and antigenic variations of human T cell leukemia virus type I particles in human lymphocytes.

Abstract excerpt

HTLV-I particles grown in 4 human lymphocyte cultures were observed by electron microscopy. Particles in all cell lines showed marked size and structural variations that were characteristic of each cell line. Profiles of size-distributions were found to be similar among virus particles of the same origin in different cell lines. Immunogold electron microscopy using monoclonal antibody to HTLV-I-p15, -p19, or -p24...
