Article Synopsis
- - Human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV-1) affects over 10 million people worldwide and is associated with two main diseases: Adult T cell Leukemia-Lymphoma (ATLL) and HTLV-1-associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP).
- - A systematic review analyzed 20 studies involving 1,420 cases and found that IL-17 cytokine levels were higher in HAM/TSP patients but reduced in those with ATLL.
- - The findings suggest that enhancing the RORC/IL-17 signaling pathway may help ATLL patients, while anti-IL-17 therapies could improve outcomes for those suffering from HAM/TSP and other HTLV
