Patients with filariasis were commonly observed until 1961-1970 in the Goto Islands, an area where adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) is endemic. The positive rate of antibodies to ATL virus-associated antigen among persons with a high antibody titer to filarial antigen was higher than that among persons with a low antibody titer in both sexes. Thus, filarial parasites might have some promoting effects on ATL virus infection and/or ATL virus proliferation among inhabitants in the endemic areas of filariasis and ATL.
直到1961年至1970年，在丝虫病患者常见的五岛列岛（成人T细胞白血病（ATL）的流行地区），丝虫抗原抗体滴度高的人群中ATL病毒相关抗原抗体的阳性率高于两性中丝虫抗原抗体滴度低的人群。因此，丝虫寄生虫可能对丝虫病和ATL流行地区居民的ATL病毒感染和/或ATL病毒增殖有一定的促进作用。
