## Abstract The Human T‐cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV‐I) non‐structural protein Tax plays a crucial role in cellular transformation. It activates the transcription factors of various cellular genes and interacts with cellular proteins. There is limited data available on the interaction between s
HTLV-I propagated in lMR9O human diploid fibroblasts was transmitted to human myeloid leukemia HL60 cells at a low efficiency. After co-cultivation for 3 months, the viral genome was detected in 14/48 HL60 cell clones. Among the 14 HTLV-I-infected clones, 8 contained subgenomic fragments alone or in
## Abstract Survivin, a unique member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein family, is overexpressed in many cancers and considered to play an important role in oncogenesis. We previously reported the survivin expression profile in ATL, a CD4‐positive T‐cell malignancy caused by HTLV‐I. HTLV‐I Tax
## Abstract HTLV‐I is the etiologic agent of ATL and of tropical spastic paraparesis/HTLV‐I‐associated myelopathy. Infiltration of various tissues by circulating leukemic cells and HTLV‐I‐infected T cells is a characteristic of ATL and HTLV‐I‐associated inflammatory diseases. Chemokines play import
