| molecular and phylogenetic analyses of 16 novel simian t cell leukemia virus type 1 from africa: close relationship of stlv-1 from allenopithecus nigroviridis to htlv-1 subtype b strains. | a serological survey searching for antibodies reacting with human t-cell leukemia virus type 1 (htlv-1) antigens was performed on a series of 263 sera/plasma obtained from 34 monkey species or subspecies, originating from different parts of africa. among them, 34 samples exhibited a typical htlv-1 western blot pattern. polymerase chain reaction was performed with three primer sets specific either to htlv-1/stlv-1 or htlv-2 and encompassing gag, pol, and tax sequences, on genomic dna from periphe ... | 2001 | 11531406 |
| origin of htlv-1 in hunters of nonhuman primates in central africa. | of 78 gabonese individuals who had received bites from nonhuman primates (nhps) while hunting, 7 were infected with human t lymphotropic virus (htlv-1). five had been bitten by gorillas and were infected with subtype b strains; however, a 12-year-old girl who was severely bitten by a cercopithecus nictitans was infected with a subtype d strain that was closely related to the simian t lymphotropic virus (stlv-1) that infects this monkey species. her mother was infected with a subtype b strain. th ... | 2015 | 25147276 |

| a new stlv-1 in a household pet cercopithecus nictitans from gabon. | a recent serological survey of wild-born captive monkeys from gabon, central africa, revealed that 1 of 20 cercopithecus nictitans tested was infected with a new simian t cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (stlv-1). we investigated the molecular relationship between the stlv-1 strain present in this c. nictitans (cn01) and the other available htlv/stlv strains. phylogenetic analysis of the env (gp46 and gp21) region showed that the new stlv(nict) clusters with the htlv-1/stlv-1 group and not with th ... | 2004 | 15242546 |
