| pubmed-article:15494269 | pubmed:abstractText | Human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is linked etiologically with adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma and HTLV-I-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparsis (HAM/TSP). Human T-lymphotropic virus type II (HTLV-II) is associated with HAM/TSP and, in HIV coinfected patients only, rare cases of cutaneous T cell lymphoma. Proviral load may be important in the pathogenesis of HTLV-associated disease. | lld:pubmed |
