Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Infection with the oncogenic delta-retrovirus Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) causes aggressive CD4+ T-cell malignancy or progressive neuroinflammatory disorders. The HTLV-1 accessory protein p8 is important for viral persistence and induces formation of cellular conduits, thereby enhancing HTLV-1 cell-to-cell transmission. p8 is a cleavage product of its precursor protein p...
