Lymphocyte blastogenesis and interferon production in adult human leukocyte cultures stimulated with cytomegalovirus antigens.
Lymphocyte blastogenesis and interferon production were measured in adult human leukocyte cultures stimulated with purified or crude cytomegalovirus antigens. Leukocytes from seropositive adults underwent blastogenesis when stimulated with purified or crude Towne strain antigen, whereas neither antigen stimulated blastogenesis in cultures from seronegative donors. The concentrations of antigens...

results of all participants, 104 patients (52%) were diagnosed with cmv infection. there was no significant difference between the two groups, with and without cmv infection, in terms of patient’s characteristics. the cmv infection, in patients receiving a transplanted organ from deceased donor, was significantly more prevalent than in those receiving kidney transplant from living donor (63% vs...
متن کاملImprovement in isolation of human peripheral blood leukocyte subpopulations: application in diagnosing human cytomegalovirus infection in bone marrow transplant patients.
OBJECTIVES High-yield isolation and purification of human leukocyte subpopulations from whole blood is fundamental to many biological and medical applications including qualitative and quantitative PCR-based techniques of determining human cytomegalovirus infection. Several procedures have been reported to purify morphologically and functionally intact human leukocyte subpopulations for diagnos...
متن کاملHuman Cytomegalovirus: Infections and Diagnosis
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous virus whose sole host is humans. Since HCMV can contagion from person to person through numerous ways, vast populations of humans are infected. HCMV infections can potentially have a range from asymptomatic infection in immuno-competent hosts to life-threatening diseases in organ recipients and patients with AIDS. The present article reviews the occu...
متن کاملAssessment of mitochondrial DNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocyte of opiate abusers and healthy individuals
Background: Based on the studies, variation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes is associated with increased susceptibility to diseases including cancer. Opiate abusers are at high risk for diseases. In this study, we measured the mtDNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes in a group of opiate abusers compared with those in healthy individuals. Met...
