1. Genome-wide analyses of HTLV-1aD strains from Cape Verde, Africa
We characterised and reported the first full-length genomes of Human T-cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 subgroup HTLV-1aD (CV21 and CV79). This subgroup is one of the major determinants of HTLV-1 infections in North and West Africa, and recombinant strains involving this subgroup have been recently demonstrated. The CV21 and CV79 strains from Cape Verde/Africa

3. Molecular characterization of human T-cell lymphotropic virus coinfecting human immunodeficiency virus 1 infected patients in the Amazon region of Brazil
The present work evaluated the epidemiology of human immunodeficiency virus 1/human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HIV-1/HTLV) coinfection in patients living in Belém (state of Pará) and Macapá (state of Amapá), two cities located in the Amazon region of Brazil. A total of 169 blood samples were collected. The sera were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent

4. PrevalÃncia de co-infecÃÃo pelos vÃrus linfotrÃpico de cÃlulas T humanas do adulto â HTLV e vÃrus da imunodeficÃncia adquirida â HIV, no Cearà / Prevalence of co-infection with human T-lymphotropic adult - HTLV and acquired immunodeficiency virus - HIV, CearÃ
Several studies carried out in Brazil have shown a serum-prevalence rate of HIV / HTLV (Human Immunodeficiency - virus / Human T-Lymphotropic virus) co-infection of 0.58% to 11.4% among specific groups of individuals. Based on previous data, the State of Cearà is considered an area of low HTLV prevalence in the northeastern Brasil. This study evaluated the

5. Identification of Human T-lymphotropic Virus Type I (HTLV-I) Subtypes Using Restrited Fragment Length Polymorphism in a Cohort of Asymptomatic Carriers and Patients with HTLV-I-associated Myelopathy/tropical Spastic Paraparesis from São Paulo, Brazil
Although human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) exhibits high genetic stability, as compared to other RNA viruses and particularly to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), genotypic subtypes of this human retrovirus have been characterized in isolates from diverse geographical areas. These are currently believed not to be associated with different pathogen

6. Dinamica de transmissão do HIV entre usuários de drogas injetáveis, na cidade de Santos, São Paulo, Brasil / Dynamic of HIV transmission among injecting drug users, in the city of Santos, Sao Paulo, Brazil
In order to study the seroprevalence of HIV and infections with related transmission patterns, as hepatitis B and C, syphilis and HTLV (1 and 2), we interviewed and bled 197 IDUs, sampled by snow-balling and compared with 197 blood donors matched for age and sex, both groups from the city of Santos, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Seroprevalences found were 62% for HIV,
