It is beyond dispute that cytotoxic T-lymphocytes(CTLs)exert a vital function in the host's antiviral defense mechanism.With the idea of the above factor and the logistic proliferation of CD4+T-cells,we establish a HT...
Human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)and human T-Iymphotropic virus type I(HTLV-I)are two retroviruses that infect the susceptible CD4^(+)T cells.It is known that HIV and HTLV-I have in common a way of transmission throug...
