Resumo: Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type II (HTLV-II) is found in many New World Indian groups on the American continent. In Brazil, HTLV-II has been found among urban residents and Indians in the Amazon region, in the North. Guaraní Indians in the South of Brazil were studied for HTLV-I/II infection. Among 52 individuals, three (5.76%) showed positive anti-HTLV-II antibodies (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot). This preliminary report is the first seroepidemiological study showing HTLV-II infection among Indians in the South of Brazil.

No Brasil, tem sido encontrado em indivíduos da população urbana, bem como em índios oriundos da região Amazônica. Os Índios Guaraní, do Sul do país, foram investigados para infecção por HTLV-I/II. Três indivíduos, oriundos de uma amostra de 52 índios, demonstraram sororeatividade para HTLV-II (ensaio imunoenzimático e Western blot). Este estudo preliminar foi o primeiro a identificar a presença de infecção por HTLV-II em ameríndios do Sul do Brasil.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2005-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2655Reports in Public Health; Vol. 21 No. 6 (2005): November/DecemberCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 21 n. 6 (2005): Novembro/Dezembro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2655/5330https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2655/5331Menna-Barreto, MarcioBender, Ana LigiaBonatto, Sandro L.Freitas, Loreta B.Salzano, Francisco M.Tsuneto, Luiza T.Petzl-Erler, Maria Luizainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:27:09Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/2655Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:03:05.850947Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
