Frequent horizontal and mother-to-child transmission may contribute to high prevalence of STLV-1 infection in Japanese macaques

2020-06-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> Background: Simian T-cell leukemia virus type-1 (STLV-1) is disseminated among various non-human primate species and is closely related to human T-cell leukemia virus type-1 (HTLV-1), the causative agent of adult T-cell leukemia and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/ tropical spastic paraparesis. Notably, t he prevalence of STLV-1 infection in Japanese macaques (JMs) is estimated to be >60%,...
