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
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
[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
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
