Human Cytomegalovirus: an Enormous Variety of Strains and Their Possible Clinical Significance in the Human Host

2011-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) does not exist as one defined virus genotype, but as a variety of different strains. Several studies have investigated the significance of specific viral genotypes for the clinical course of HCMV infection. Upon reinfection, patients may acquire additional HCMV strains, and infections with a mixture of HCMV strains appear to be quite common. The analysis of such mixed infections has be...
