    Author: Miyamoto K, Nakamura T, Nagataki S, Tomita N, Kitajima K.
    Journal: Jpn J Cancer Res; 1992 May; 83(5):415-7. PubMed ID: 1618692.
    Abstract:
    Syncytium inhibition assay to distinguish between HTLV-I and HTLV-II infection was performed with sera and cerebrospinal fluid of 15 HTLV-I-associated myelopathy (HAM) patients. Also, genome analysis of HTLV-II proviral DNA was performed in some HAM patients by use of the polymerase chain reaction method. All of the HAM patients were negative for co-infection with HTLV-II.
