Human cytomegalovirus glycoprotein variants governing viral tropism and syncytium formation in epithelial cells and macrophages
5 Jun 2024
Abstract excerpt
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) displays a broad cell tropism, and the infection of biologically relevant cells such as epithelial, endothelial, and hematopoietic cells supports viral transmission, systemic spread, and pathogenesis in the human host. HCMV strains differ in their ability to infect and replicate in these cell types, but the genetic basis of these differences has remained incompletely understood. In...
