Human T cell leukemia virus type-I (HTLV-I)-integrated synovial cell clones (SCCs) were established from four HTLV-I-infected patients with chronic proliferative arthropathy. Extracted DNAs of these SCCs were examined for the existence of HTLV-I proviral DNA. Electron microscopic analysis and immunohistochemical staining were also performed to examine the nature of the HTLV-I integrated SCCs. SCCs derived from all four patients consisted of either HTLV-I integrated or nonintegrated cells. HTLV-I integrated SCCs also produced viral messenger RNA which was detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction as well as viral protein which was detected by immunohistochemical staining. Phenotypically, these SCCs containing HTLV-I proviral DNA were shown to be all cell types as observed by electron microscopic analysis and immunohistochemical analysis. Moreover, expression of HTLV-I glycoprotein was greater in SCCs with a monocyte marker. These findings suggest that SCCs harboring HTLV-I have an important role in synovial hyperplasia.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011533 Proviruses Duplex DNA sequences in eukaryotic chromosomes, corresponding to the genome of a virus, that are transmitted from one cell generation to the next without causing lysis of the host. Proviruses are often associated with neoplastic cell transformation and are key features of retrovirus biology. Provirus
D002999 Clone Cells A group of genetically identical cells all descended from a single common ancestral cell by mitosis in eukaryotes or by binary fission in prokaryotes. Clone cells also include populations of recombinant DNA molecules all carrying the same inserted sequence.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
