Abstract

Human T cell lymphotropic virus I (HTLV-I) is the etiological agent for adult T cell leukemia and tropical spastic paraparesis (also termed HTLV-I-associated myelopathy). HTLV-I-infected peripheral blood T cells exhibit an initial phase of interleukin-2 (IL-2)-dependent growth; over time, by an unknown mechanism, the cells become IL-2-independent. Whereas the Jak kinases Jak1 and Jak3 and the signal transducer and activator of transcription proteins Stat3 and Stat5 are activated in normal T cells in response to IL-2, this signaling pathway was constitutively activated in HTLV-I-transformed cells. In HTLV-I-infected cord blood lymphocytes, the transition from IL-2-dependent to IL-2-independent growth correlated with the acquisition of a constitutively activated Jak-STAT pathway, which suggests that this pathway participates in HTLV-I-mediated T cell transformation.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Either or both STAT3 and NF-κB are activated in cells transformed with HTLV-1, v-src, abl, bcr-abl or v-eyk.

    “Additionally, either or both are activated in cells transformed with HTLV-1 (311), v-src (312), abl (313), bcr-abl or v-eyk (314).”

  • HTLV-I, Epstein-Barr virus and papilloma virus activate STAT3 and NF-κB.

    “Both hepatitis B and hepatitis C viruses, which induce hepatitis and cause hepatocellular carcinoma, activate STAT3 (328–330), while HTLV-I, Epstein–Barr virus and papilloma virus activate STAT3 and NF-κB (311, 331, 332).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
