Antibody Cross-Reactivity between Porcine Cytomegalovirus (PCMV) and Human Herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6)

Viruses, 2017
Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) infection is widely prevalent among pigs, and PCMV is one of the viruses which may be transmitted during xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues, or organs. While human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a major risk factor for

Control of human cytomegalovirus replication by liver resident natural killer cells

Nature Communications, 2023
Natural killer cells play important roles in the immune response to human cytomegalovirus infection. Here the authors implicate donor-derived liver resident natural killer cells in the control of human cytomegalovirus infection by analysis of perfusates ...
