Figure 1

Activation profile of CD4+ (A) and CD8+ (B) T-lymphocytes from asymptomatic HTLV-1-infected individuals. Flow cytometry was performed using fresh whole blood samples. Data represents median and interquartile range of 20 asymptomatic HTLV-1infected individuals grouped according to HTLV-1 PVL expressed as ≥1% (10 individuals) and <1% of infected cells (10 individuals) and 10 healthy donors (HD). Kruskal–Wallis test with the Bonferroni-Dunn multiple comparisons. The level of significance was set at P < 0.05.
