Natural antibodies to human retrovirus HTLV in a cluster of Japanese patients with adult T cell leukemia.
TL;DR: Observations from Japan, together with data from Japan showing that adult T cell leukemia is endemic in southwest Japan, suggest that HTLV is involved in a subtype of human T cell malignancy, including Japanese adult Tcell leukemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
HTLV-III in saliva of people with AIDS-related complex and healthy homosexual men at risk for AIDS

TL;DR: Peripheral blood leukocytes and saliva from 20 individuals, including four with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), ten with AIDS-related complex (ARC), and six healthy homosexual males at risk for AIDS, were compared as sources of transmissible human T-cell leukemia (lymphotropic) virus type III (HTLV-III), the virus found to be the etiologic agent of AIDS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seroepidemiological studies of human T-lymphotropic retrovirus type III in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
Bijan Safai,JeromeE. Groopman,Mikulas Popovic,Jörg Schüpbach,M. G. Sarngadharan,Kathy Arnett,Ann Sliski,Robert C. Gallo +7 more
TL;DR: Sera screened for antibodies to proteins of the novel human T-lymphotropic retrovirus (leukaemia virus), HTLV-III, recently isolated from cultured T cells of AIDS patients strongly indicate that the antibodies to HT LV are diagnostic of AIDS or indicate significant risk of the disease, and suggest that HT LV is the primary cause of human AIDS.
Journal ArticleDOI
HTLV-III in symptom-free seronegative persons.
S. Zaki Salahuddin,P. D. Markham,RobertR. Redfield,Myron Essex,JeromeE. Groopman,M. G. Sarngadharan,MF McLane,Ann Sliski,Robert C. Gallo +8 more
TL;DR: The occurrence of seronegative but virus-positive persons without clinical symptoms suggests that assays other than those detecting antibody to virus, perhaps based on detection of viral antigens or immune complexes, may be required to identify all infected individuals.
