Percentage of Tax-positive cells in CD4 + T lymphocytes.
Percentage of Tax- and IL- 13-positive cells in CD4+ T lymphocytes.
Provirus load is expressed as percent of PBMCs containing HTLV-1 provirus.
Cells were cultivated in the presence of 10 μg/mL Brefeldin A for 6 hours.
Cells were cultivated in the presence of 10 μg/mL Brefeldin A for 24 hours.
