Preferred Label : simian T-lymphotropic virus 1;
MeSH definition : A strain of PRIMATE T-LYMPHOTROPIC VIRUS 2, closely related to the human HTLV-1 virus.
The clinical, hematological, and histopathological characteristics of the disease
in STLV-infected monkeys are very similar to those of human adult T-cell leukemia.
Subgroups include the African green monkey subtype (STLV-I-AGM), for which the nucleotide
sequence is 95% homologous with that of HUMAN T-LYMPHOTROPIC VIRUS 1, and the Asian
rhesus macaque subtype (STLV-I-MM), for which the nucleotide sequence is 90% homologous
with that of HUMAN T-LYMPHOTROPIC VIRUS 1.;
MeSH synonym : simian t-lymphotropic virus type i; stlv-i; t lymphotropic virus, type i, simian; stlv-1; simian t lymphotropic virus type i; t-lymphotropic virus, type i, simian; simian T lymphotropic virus 1;
MeSH annotation : infection: coord IM with DELTARETROVIRUS INFECTIONS (IM);
