Analysis of cell-surface receptors. HAM/TSP: HTLV-1 associated myelopathy /Tropical spastic paraparesis, n = 12; AS: asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers, n = 18. CTR: uninfected controls, n = 15. Activating receptors: a NKp30, (b) NKp46 and (d) NKG2D. Inhibitory receptors: c KIR2DL2/KIR2DL3 and (e) NKG2A exhaustion markers: f-h TIM-3 and PD-1. Data are expressed as medians and interquartile interval range. Differences were considered significant when P ≤ 0.05. Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by Dunn’s post-test
