AB In Senegal, between 1981 and 1982, 215 monkeys were killed during a
yellow fever control in Kedougou, and 177 were trapped between 1989 and
1991 in Sine Saloum. There were 221 patas monkeys (PM) and 171 african
green monkeys (AGM). Sera were screened for SIV by ELISA assay (HIV 1
and HIV 2) and confirmed by WB using a SIV agm as antigen. For STLV,
ELISA, IF assays and WB were used. SIV seroprevalence rates were 3.2%
for PM and 38.6% for AGM, and for STLV, 22.2% and 35.6% respectively. In
AGM an increase risk of seropositivity to SIV was associated with STLV
positivity (RR = 4.3, p < 0.0001), and in PM in Kedougou an increase
risk was also found with being seropositive to STLV (OR = 15.6 p =
0.01). These increase risk remain present after adjustment on area, sexe
and age, suggesting a dependance of infection between these two endemic
simian retroviruses in two species with different social and sexual
behaviors. Such SIV-STLV coinfections represent a model for HIV-HTLV
coinfections in humans.
