NK cells force cytomegalovirus to use hematopoietic cells and immune evasion for dissemination after mucosal infection

2019-04-24

Abstract excerpt

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infects most people in the world and causes clinically important disease in immune compromised and immune immature individuals. How the virus disseminates from the initial site of infection is poorly understood. We used an innovative approach, involving insertion of target sites for the haematopoietic specific miRNA miR-142-3p into an essential viral gene in murine cytomegalovirus. This virus...
