Figure 6From: Increased expression of OX40 is associated with progressive disease in patients with HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesisThe HTLV-1 proviral load in CD4+T cells were significantly reduced after cultivation. CD4+ T cells were isolated from PBMCs before and after cultivation, extracted genomic DNA, and measured the HTLV-1 PVL. HTLV-1 PVL in CD4+ T cells was significantly reduced after culture.Back to article page
