The viral transactivator Tax plays a key role in HTLV-1 reactivation and de novo infection. Previous approaches focused on the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) Valproate as latency-reversing agent to boost expression expose infected cells host's immune response. However, following treatment with proviral load decreases patients HAM/TSP were only transient. Here, we hypothesize that other compounds, including more potent selective HDACi, might prove superior manipulating expression....
