Abstract
Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a retrovirus that infects T lymphocytes. HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is an intractable neurodegenerative disease caused by HTLV-1 infection just like adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is, developing in a fraction of infected individuals. Here, we review the update information about the new drug development and therapeutic algorithm of HAM/TSP based on the resent research achievement in molecular pathogenesis and biomarkers.
