| [sero-epidemiological study on the human t-cell leukaemia virus type i/ii infection in the east coastal areas of fujian province]. | to study the seroprevalence of human t-cell leukaemia virus type i/ii (htlv-i/ii) infection in adult population in the east coastal areas of fujian and to explore the possible risk factors of htlv-i/ii. | 2004 | 15231172 |
| [serological survey of human t lymphotropic virus type i (htlv-1) igg antibody in south region of xinjiang]. | human t lymphotropic virus type-1 (htlv-1) is endemic in southwestern japan, seychelles islands, caribbean basin, brazil, and sub saharan africa. recently, the prevalence of htlv-1 of domestic source has been reported from beijing, fujian and so forth. the object of our study is to know whether the prevalence of htlv-1 is present in xinjiang. we collected 2642 serm samples of various ages and different nationalities (uigur, han and khalkhas) from south region of xinjiang and tested for determina ... | 1997 | 15617250 |
| nucleotide sequence analyses of partial envgp46 gene of human t-lymphotropic virus type i from inhabitants of fujian province in southeast china. | partial sequences from the env(gp46) gene of two human t-lymphotropic virus type i (htlv-i) isolates (lin and wen) obtained from inhabitants of fujian province in southeast china were analyzed. a phylogenetic tree was constructed from these sequence data and those of other known htlv-i isolates from all over the world. comparisons of the lin and wen nucleotide sequences with other htlv-i isolates showed diversity ranging from 0.73 to 7.00% for lin and from 0.87 to 7.00% for wen. sequences of iso ... | 2000 | 10875617 |
| epidemiology of anti-human t-cell leukemia virus type i antibody and characteristics of adult t-cell leukemia in china. | we analyzed the data from seroepidemiologic survey of anti-htlv-i serum antibody (htlv-1 ab) and 16 adult cases of t-cell leukemia (atl) in china (1984-1994). the results showed that the positive rate of htlv-i ab of the population of china was 0.54%, the birth or residence places of htlv-i carriers and all the patients with atl were mainly distributed in the coastal provinces and the northeast china, and a small endemic area of htlv-i and atl was found in fujian province (htlv-i ab positive rat ... | 1995 | 8728941 |
| prevalence and partial sequence analysis of human t cell lymphotropic virus type i in china. | a total of 145,293 serum samples were collected from volunteer blood donors in 13 provinces of china and tested for anti-htlv antibody using an elisa licensed in china. thirty were positive for anti-htlv by elisa and 19 of those 30 samples were confirmed positive using a supplemental immunoblot assay. anti-htlv-i was detected only in samples from fujian province (a southern province) where the positivity rate was approximately 0.05%. the region encoding gp46 from 5 of the 19 antibody positive sa ... | 2005 | 15977241 |
