## Abstract The relative merits of antibody response and virus shedding as markers of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection among cyclosporinโtreated renal allograft recipients were analysed. CMVโspecific antibody was assayed by lgGโspecific radioimmunosorbent test (RIST) and by complement fixation test
The effect of cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease on mononuclear subpopulations of 49 renal transplant recipients treated with cyclosporine and prednisone are reported. Clinical overt CMV infection developed in 8/21 patients treated for rejection with rabbit antithymocyte globulin. They all showed true in
## Abstract In a study of the effects on renal allograft survival of HLA mismatching, mismatching for cytomegalovirus (CMV) antibody status, and postโtransplant CMV infection, 148 cyclosporinโtreated renal transplant recipients were given kidneys optimally matched for HLAโA, โB, and โDR antigens bu
Natural killer (NK) cell function in relation t o immunophenotypical signs of NK activation was studied prospectively in 15 renal transplant patients with cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. NK activity (expressed as the percentage of K562 ly- sis) before onset of CMV infection reached a median of 6% (
