"textContent": "New research from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry and Masonic Cancer Center is providing important new insights into the structure of a human virus that causes blood cancer. In their study published in Nature Communications, researchers analyzed human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV), a human retrovirus that causes adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and is related to HIV. As there is no current treatment for this disease, the research team used high-resolution imaging of the virus to help uncover where therapies might be successful.",
