Protective capacity of neutralizing and non-neutralizing antibodies against glycoprotein B of cytomegalovirus.
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is an important, ubiquitous pathogen that causes severe clinical disease in immunocompromised individuals, such as organ transplant recipients and infants infected in utero. Antiviral chemotherapy remains problematic due to toxicity of the available compounds and the eme...
