Abstract The clinical entity of adult T-cell leukemia ATL was established around 1977 and human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 HTLV-I was subsequently identified in 1980. In the 25 years since the discovery of HTLV-I HTLV-I infection and its associated diseases have been extensively studied and many of their aspects have been clarified. However the detailed mechanism of leukemogenesis remains unsolved yet and the prognosis of ATL patients still poor because of its resistance to chemotherapy and immunodeficiency. In this review I highlight the recent progress and remaining enigmas in HTLV-I infection and its associated diseases especially ATL. Background In 1977 Takatsuki et al. reported adult T-cell leukemia ATL as a distinct clinical entity 1-3 . This disease is characterized by its aggressive clinical course infiltrations into skin liver gastrointestinal tract and lung hypercalcemia and the presence of leukemic cells with multilobulated nuclei flower cell Figure 1 . In 1980 Poiesz et al. discovered a human retrovirus in a cell line derived from a patient with ATL and designated it human T-cell leukemia virus type I HTLV-I 4 5 . The linkage between ATL and HTLV-I was proven
