From: Humoral immune response to HTLV-1 basic leucine zipper factor (HBZ) in HTLV-1-infected individuals
Detection of antibody responses against HTLV-1 in serum and CSF of HAM/TSP patients. The data were obtained from 5 HAM/TSP patients including 2 patients (#1 and #2) and 3 patients (#5, #6 and #7) with and without HBZ-specific antibody response, respectively. Antibody responses for Gag (A), Env (B), Tax (C) and HBZ (D) were examined in serum (opened bar) and in CSF (closed bar). (E) Ratio of immunoreactivities against HTLV-1 Gag, Env, Tax and HBZ in CSF to those in serum of two HAM/TSP patients with HBZ-specific antibody responses.
