Abstract

Five new restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) using TaqI and a DR beta probe have been found in Caucasian individuals. The families of these individuals have been tissue typed by serological and RFLP methods. The new RFLPs are similar to previously established RFLPs except for the size of one fragment in each instance.

Majority of interferon-gamma-producing CD4+ cells in patients infected with human T cell lymphotrophic virus do not express tax protein.

The present study was conducted to determine whether interferon (IFN)-gamma production by CD4(+) cells in patients infected with human T cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) is associated with expression of Tax, an HTLV type 1 (HTLV-1) transactivator. The frequency of IFN-gamma production from CD4(+) cells was greater in HTLV-1-infected patients (n=21) than in uninfected (n=3) and Strongyloides stercoralis-infected patients (n=4), and greater in patients with HTLV-1 with detectable Tax than in patients with HTLV-1 with undetectable Tax. In the patients with HTLV-1 with detectable Tax, the majority of CD4(+) cells making IFN-gamma did not express Tax.
