A total of 145,293 serum samples were collected from volunteer blood donors in 13 provinces of China and tested for anti-HTLV antibody using an ELISA licensed in China. Thirty were positive for anti-HTLV by ELISA and 19 of those 30 samples were confirmed positive using a supplemental immunoblot assay. Anti-HTLV-I was detected only in samples from Fujian province (a Southern province) where the positivity rate was approximately 0.05%. The region encoding gp46 from 5 of the 19 antibody positive samples was amplified and sequenced. Sequence analysis indicated that these isolates belong to HTLV-I genotype A. These data suggest that HTLV-I is not endemic throughout China and the virus may be restricted to a particular region.
在中国13个省份,共采集了145,293份来自无偿献血者的血清样本,并使用中国许可的酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)检测抗人类嗜T淋巴细胞病毒(HTLV)抗体。通过ELISA检测,有30份样本抗HTLV呈阳性,其中19份样本经补充免疫印迹法确认为阳性。仅在福建省(中国南方省份)的样本中检测到抗HTLV-I,其阳性率约为0.05%。对19份抗体阳性样本中的5份样本编码gp46的区域进行了扩增和测序。序列分析表明,这些分离株属于HTLV-I A基因型。这些数据表明,HTLV-I在中国并非地方性流行,该病毒可能局限于特定区域。
