Human Cytomegalovirus Glycoprotein B Genotypes In Chinese Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients
INTERVIROLOGY(2012)
摘要
Objectives: To investigate the distribution of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) glycoprotein B (gB) genotypes and to explore the possible relationship between gB genotypes and clinical characteristics in Chinese hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. Methods: A prospective analysis of gB genotypes was conducted on HCMV clinical isolates obtained from 102 HSCT recipients. Real-time quantitative PCR and PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis were applied for the determination of viral loads and gB genotypes, respectively. Results: The distribution of gB genotypes was as follows: gB1, 54/102 (52.9%); gB3, 21/102 (20.6%); and mixtures, 27/102 (26.5%). The rate of viral clearance at day 21 was higher in patients infected with the gB1 genotype than in those infected with the gB3 genotype (56 and 29%, respectively; p = 0.036). In contrast, the rate of HCMV reactivation/reinfection was higher in patients infected with the gB3 genotype than in those infected with the gB1 genotype (81 and 56%, respectively; p = 0.041). Conclusions: The HCMV gB1 genotype is the most prevalent among Chinese HSCT recipients; patients infected with the gB3 genotype have more difficulty eradicating the virus and have a higher risk of reactivation/reinfection than those infected with the gB1 genotype.
