Constitutive activation of nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB is a common feature of human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I)-transformed T cells. Inhibition of NF-kappaB activity reduces cell growth and induces apoptosis of HTLV-I-transformed T cells, suggesting a central role of NF-kappaB in their proliferation and survival. In this study, we investigated whether MyD88, an adaptor protein of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling, contributes to constitutive NF-kappaB activation in HTLV-I-transformed T cells.
