Abstract excerpt
Abstract Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is one of the most common infections in humans, and CMV antigens are the major drivers of repetitive T-cell stimulation as a part of a well-adapted immune response in immunocompetent individuals. With higher age, the recurrent clonal expansion of CMV-specific T cells results in high frequencies of CMV-specific effector T cells. Further on, CMV seropositivity has...
