Bidirectional transfer of human cytomegalovirus strains in donor and recipient seropositive lung transplant patients

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Donor and recipient human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) seropositive (D+R+) lung transplant recipients (LTRs) often harbor multiple strains of HCMV, likely due to transmitted donor (D) strains and reactivated recipient (R) strains. To date, the extent and timely occurrence of each likely source in shaping the post‐transplantation (post‐Tx) strain ...
