Immune reconstitution of human cytomegalovirus-specific T lymphocytes after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and their predictive role in reactivation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common virus to affect the recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). HCMV reactivation increases the risk of secondary fungal and bacterial infections, as well as that of non ...

Is the presence of HCMV components in CNS tumors a glioma-specific phenomenon?

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2019
Background Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has been associated with malignant gliomas. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the presence of HCMV in common non-glial tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) and to determine whether it is a ...

Efficacious control of cytomegalovirus infection after long-term depletion of CD8+ T lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Although the relative contribution of different immune effector functions to clearing tissues of cytomegalovirus is controversial, the contribution of CD8+ T lymphocytes has generally been accepted as essential. In this report, we show that under certain

Distinct expression profile of HCMV encoded miRNAs in plasma from oral lichen planus patients

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2017
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 ...

Human Cytomegalovirus glycoprotein UL16 causes intracellular sequestration of NKG2D ligands, protecting against NK cell cytotoxicity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The activating receptor, NKG2D, is expressed on a variety of immune effector cells and recognizes divergent families of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related ligands, including the MIC and ULBP proteins.

Natural killer cells as an initial defense against pathogens. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Natural killer (NK) cells serve as a crucial first line of defense against tumors and a diverse range of pathogens. Recognition of infection by NK cells is accomplished by the activation of receptors on the NK cell surface, which initiate NK cell ...
