Human Cytomegalovirus Glycoproteins
The complex biology of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) necessarily begins with an initial interaction between the envelope of the infectious virion and the host cell. Understanding the initial events of infection will require a further analysis of the glycoprotein components of the virion envelope as well as their expression in the membranes of the ...

Pathogen at the Gates: Human Cytomegalovirus Entry and Cell Tropism
The past few years have brought substantial progress toward understanding how human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) enters the remarkably wide spectrum of cell types and tissues that it infects.

Functional single-cell genomics of human cytomegalovirus infection
Understanding how viral and host factors interact and how perturbations impact infection is the basis for designing antiviral interventions. Here we define the functional contribution of each viral and host factor involved in human cytomegalovirus ...

The Human Cytomegalovirus, from Oncomodulation to Oncogenesis
Besides its well-described impact in immunosuppressed patients, the role of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in the pathogenesis of cancer has been more recently investigated.

Human Cytomegalovirus Cell Tropism and Host Cell Receptors
In the 1970s–1980s, a striking increase in the number of disseminated human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infections occurred in immunosuppressed patient populations.

The Oncogenicity of Human Cytomegalovirus [PDF]
The potential role of Human cytomegalovirus (hCM) infection in promoting neoplasia is an active area of scientific research. [1] Although still controversial, there is a growing body of evidence that links hCMV infection to a variety of malignancies, including those of the breast, prostate, colon, lung and brain (gliomas).

Lack of cytomegalovirus detection in human glioma [PDF]
Gliomas are the most common brain tumors and include a variety of histologic types and grades of malignancy. They arise from glial cells and represent approximately 70% of the primary brain tumors. According to the criteria of the World Health Organization (WHO), the majority of gliomas can be classified into four grades of malignancy (I-IV).

Maternal Immunity and the Natural History of Congenital Human Cytomegalovirus Infection
Congenital human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common viral infection of the developing fetus, and a significant cause of neurodevelopmental abnormalities in infants and children.

Human cytomegalovirus persistence
Viral persistence is the rule following infection with all herpesviruses. The β-herpesvirus, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), persists through chronic and latent states of infection. Both of these states of infection contribute to HCMV persistence and to the high HCMV seroprevalence worldwide.
