Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Glycoprotein B Genotypes and Response to Antiviral Therapy, in Solid‐Organ–Transplant Recipients with CMV Disease
8 Aug 2003
Abstract excerpt
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) can be classified into 4 glycoprotein B (gB) genotypes, on the basis of sequence variation in the UL55 gene. We assessed the effect that CMV gB genotype has on virologic and clinical response to therapy, in 50 solid-organ-transplant recipients with CMV disease. CMV loads were determined at regular intervals after the start of therapy. Genotype results were correlated with CMV-load kinetics...
