Example of rabbit model of HTLV-1 transmission. Inoculation of HTLV-1 transformed cells, e.g., R49 cells or Jurkat cell controls intravenously or orally to establish infection. Viral parameters measured are similar to those used to detect the infection in humans. PBMC, peripheral blood mononuclear cells; MLN, mesenteric lymph nodes; GALT, gut-associated lymphoid tissues.
