Pathogenesis of murine cytomegalovirus infection.
Infection of mice with murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) is an established model for studying human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. Similarly to HCMV infection, pathological changes and disease manifestations during MCMV infection are mainly dependent on the immune status of the mouse host. This review focuses mainly on the pathogenesis of MCMV infection in immunocompetent and immunodeficient and...
متن کاملCross-Species Rhesus Cytomegalovirus Infection of Cynomolgus Macaques
Cytomegaloviruses (CMV) are highly species-specific due to millennia of co-evolution and adaptation to their host, with no successful experimental cross-species infection in primates reported to date. Accordingly, full genome phylogenetic analysis of multiple new CMV field isolates derived from two closely related nonhuman primate species, Indian-origin rhesus macaques (RM) and Mauritian-origin...
متن کاملPathogenesis and prenatal diagnosis of human cytomegalovirus infection.
Congenital human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is the leading infectious cause of mental retardation and sensorineural deafness. Intrauterine transmission and adverse outcome are mainly related to primary maternal infection. Mechanisms of intrauterine transmission are slowly being unraveled and compelling evidence of the importance of using HCMV clinical strains rather than laboratory-adapte...
متن کاملThe pathogenesis of murine cytomegalovirus ocular infection. Anterior chamber inoculation.
To investigate the pathogenesis of ocular cytomegalovirus infections, 3-week-old BALB/c mice were inoculated with 10(4) plaque-forming units of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) by the right anterior chamber and studied sequentially with the use of virus assays and in situ nucleic acid hybridization methods. During acute infection, MCMV was recovered from the right vitreous, lens, cornea, retina/ch...
متن کاملPatterns of acute rhesus cytomegalovirus (RhCMV) infection predict long-term RhCMV infection.
We previously reported that long-term rhesus cytomegalovirus (RhCMV) excretion in infected macaques was related to UL/b' coding content. Acute biopsy specimens of the inoculation sites from the previous study have now been analyzed to determine whether there were acute phenotypic predictors of long-term RhCMV infection. Only in animals displaying acute endothelial tropism and neutrophilic infla...
