Human Cytomegalovirus Infection of Primary Human Oral Keratinocytes Induces Intermediate Keratinocyte Differentiation and an Altered Innate Immune Response

2025-09-16

Abstract excerpt

The oral mucosa is central for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) acquisition. However, the initial infection events in the oral cavity, including how HCMV modulates oral cells to establish infection and spread, are supported by limited experimental data and therefore remain poorly understood. We investigated HCMV infection in cultures of primary human oral keratinocytes (HOKs) as a model to study HCMV infection in the...
