After four decades of intensive research, traditional vaccination strategies for HIV-1 remain ineffective due to HIV-1′s extraordinary genetic diversity and complex immune evasion mechanisms. Cytomegaloviruses (CMV) have emerged as a novel type...
The natural history of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is inextricably associated with mucosal surfaces. The vast preponderance of primary infections occur following mucosal exposure to infectious virions, and the high seroprevalence of HCMV throughout...
Approximately 0.7% of infants are born with congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV), making it the most common congenital infection. About 1 in 5 congenitally infected babies will suffer long-term sequelae, including sensorineural deafness, intellectual dis...
One-third of humanity harbors a lifelong infection with Toxoplasma gondii, and probably about 80% are infected with human cytomegalovirus (CMV). This study aims to delineate the associations between toxoplasmosis and cognitive abilities and compare t...
Viral vectors have emerged as powerful tools for delivering and expressing foreign genes, playing a pivotal role in gene therapy. Among these vectors, cytomegalovirus (CMV) stands out as a promising viral vector due to its distinctive attributes incl...
