Virus-Like Particles and Nanoparticles for Vaccine Development against HCMV
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infects more than 70% of the human population worldwide. HCMV is responsible for high morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients and remains the leading viral cause of congenital birth defects. Despite considerable

Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in transplant patients and in fetuses following congenital infection. The glycoprotein complexes gH/gL/gO and gH/gL/UL128/UL130/UL131A (Pentamer) are required for HCMV entry in ...

Distinct expression profile of HCMV encoded miRNAs in plasma from oral lichen planus patients
Background Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease. The aetiology and molecular mechanisms of OLP remain unclear. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is a causal factor in the development of various diseases, but the clinical ...

Early Postnatal Infection With Human Cytomegalovirus Has Long‐Term Consequences on Brain Structure of Former Preterm Born Children [PDF]
Purpose Congenital infection with human Cytomegalovirus (hCMV) is a common cause of severe neurodevelopmental disability, while postnatal infection of a term‐born infant will usually not lead to an adverse neurodevelopmental outcome.

Structural basis for HCMV Pentamer receptor recognition and antibody neutralization
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) represents the viral leading cause of congenital birth defects and uses the gH/gL/UL128-130-131A complex (Pentamer) to enter different cell types, including epithelial and endothelial cells.
