Abstract

Introduction: Fas and FasL are known modulators of cellular apoptosis in immunoregulation of the innate immune response, as well as in the elimination of defective cells, and may be associated with antiviral activity of HTLV-1 – infected cells. Understanding the immunological mechanisms involved in the progression of HTLV-1 – associated diseases may contribute to predicting the clinical prognosis of infected individuals. Objective: To evaluate mRNA expression of the apoptotic modulators FAS and FASL in patients infected with HTLV-1. Methods: A total of 54 HTLV-1 – infected individuals were eva
