Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Toward achievement of the HTLV-1 prophylaxis and cure strategy, I assessed the potential for using induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell technology for development of a new immunotherapy. The frequency of Tax-specific CTLs was quite low, and its phenotypes showed senescent, less survival, and dysfunctional behaviors in a portion of chronic HTLV-1 carriers with high proviral load (4% > PVL). Patient-derived HTLV-1-specific regenerated CTL therapy could be a promising strategy to prevent or treat HTLV-1-associated diseases among these carriers.
