'This monograph will appeal to clinical microbiologists, and virologists involved in the care of transplant recipients and AIDS patients, as it provides the scientific basis of antiviral drug activity, molecular diagnosis and also of possible immunopathogenic mechanisms of CMV disease and CMV-related graft rejection.... it is highly recommended.'
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection causes severe diseases in immunocompromised patients. CMV-related morbidity is frequently linked to aberrant immune responses occurring locally within the respective tissues including immune-privileged sites such as the retina. There is growing evidence that CMV-related pathomechanisms differ profoundly as a function of cell type and differentiation state of the host cell. This book provides important new insights into CMV-related immunopathology, discusses molecular mechanisms involved in HCMV-mediated tissue injury, CMV latency and reactivation, and presents novel ideas and concepts to develop alternative antiviral drugs. As an important focus, the role of C...
