Cytomegalovirus, also called CMV is a common virus that infects most people at but rarely causes obvious illness. CMV is also the virus most frequently transmitted to a developing child before birth. A person can carry CMV in their body for a lifetime. It can be dormant in the body and then reactivate at a later time. Cytomegalovirus is a member of the herpes virus family. Some other viruses in the herpes family cause: chickenpox , infectious mononucleosis , fever blisters (herpes I) and genital herpes (herpes II). For the vast majority of people, CMV infection is not a serious problem. CMV infects between 50% and 85% of adults in the United States by 40 years of age. Symptoms? Most people never develop symptoms after exposure. The incubation period appears to be between three and 12 weeks. When symptoms appear, the most common symptoms are: prolonged fever , swollen glands, tiredness, and a mild hepatitis.

Contact Us 2002 Pediatric Health News Releases May 6, 2002 - Vaccine Developed to Protect Against Cytomegalovirus Vaccine is First to Be Proved Effective in Animal Model The study was presented at the annual meeting of the Pediatric Academic Societies in Baltimore. The prestigious Institute of Medicine has identified CMV as one of only seven diseases for which vaccine development should be given the highest level priority for research and development. In fact, CMV infection is the second most common identified cause of mental retardation in newborns, after Down syndrome. A mother can pass CMV on to her newborn baby, even if she does not feel ill herself. Unfortunately, the infant, when infected in the womb, can suffer serious consequences. CMV infection is also a leading cause of deafness in children. In the current study, the cloned, recombinant (genetically engineered to be totally pure) vaccine proved to be effective in the guinea pig model in preventing transmission of CMV from mothers to their offspring. The study is also important in demonstrating that targeting a single protein can confer protection to the fetus, according to Dr. Schleiss. And, it demonstrates the importance of proper choice of adjuvant, a product added to many vaccines to boost immune response, he says.

Cytomegalovirus Dr Rob Hicks Few people have heard of cytomegalovirus (CMV), despite it being very common, because in most cases it doesn't cause any symptoms. However, it's important to be aware of its existence, as there are occasions when it can do a great deal of harm. In this article What is it? Who's at risk? Danger to unborn babies Treatment What is it? Cytomegalovirus is a type of herpes virus. It's so common that if tested, most people would be found to have it. In most instances, it passes unnoticed and rarely causes any obvious or specific symptoms. In fact, it often causes no symptoms at all. Symptoms when they do occur - fever, tiredness, sore throat, upset stomach with diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting - are similar to those of other viral infections and are often attributed to some other cause. In teenagers, for example, the symptoms of CMV may be mistaken for glandular fever. The virus can be passed on in many ways. Often it's carried in the air in tiny fluid droplets when someone coughs or sneezes. It can also be transmitted during sexual intercourse, organ transplants and blood transfusions. In developed countries, blood supplies are screened for CMV when they're to be used for those at greatest risk from the infection.

Main Search Index Definition Description Causes ... Resources Cytomegalovirus infection Definition Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a virus related to the group of herpes viruses. Infection with CMV can cause no symptoms, or can be the source of serious illness in people with weak immune systems. CMV infection is also an important cause of birth defects Description CMV is an extremely common organism worldwide. It is believed that about 85% of the adult population in the United States have been infected by CMV at some point in their lives. CMV is found in almost all of the body's organs. It is also found in body fluids, including semen, saliva, urine, feces, breast milk, blood, and secretions of the cervix (the narrow, lower section of the uterus). CMV is also able to cross the placenta (the organ that provides oxygen and nutrients to the unborn baby in the uterus). Because CMV can cross the placental barrier, initial infection in a pregnant woman can lead to infection of the developing baby. CMV is passed between people through contact with body fluids. CMV can also be passed on through sexual contact. Babies can be born infected with CMV, either becoming infected in the uterus (congenital infection) or during birth (from infected cervical secretions).

Infectious Diseases of the Central Nervous System Parenchymal Infections: Cytomegalovirus Gary Baumbach, M.D., Department of Pathology, University of Iowa College of Medicine Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a DNA virus that is related to herpes and causes a disease referred to as cytomegalic inclusion disease (CID). Cytomegalic inclusion disease is usually found in the context of one of three situations: 1) adults who are being treated with immunosuppressive agents, 2) infants who acquire the disease as neonates and have widespread infection, and 3) intrauterine infection with CMV, usually acquired in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy. Patients who survive with the congenital form of CMV have widespread destructive lesions in the brain, and are usually left with microcephaly and mental retardation. Grossly, calcium deposits are found characteristically in a periventricular location. In this photomicrograph , you can see large basophilic intranuclear inclusions in neurons. The inclusions may also be found in the adventitial cells of blood vessels. It should be kept in mind that, in terms of onset, course and sequela, CMV is very similar to CNS toxoplasmosis.

Outline Abstract Abstract Background Results Discussion ... References Background Human cytomegalovirus encodes a uracil-DNA glycosylase homolog that is highly conserved in all characterized herpesviruses that infect mammals. Previous studies demonstrated that the deletion of this nonessential gene delays significantly the onset of viral DNA synthesis and results in a prolonged replication cycle. The gene product, pUL114, also appears to be important in late phase DNA synthesis presumably by introducing single stranded breaks.

What does cytomegalovirus cause? Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a member of the herpesvirus group, which includes the viruses that cause chickenpox, mononucleosis ("mono"), and herpes simplex types 1 and 2. These viruses can remain inactive in the body for a long time. Infection with CMV can cause a variety of clinical complications, including pneumonia, retinitis (an infection of the eye), and child infections before, during, and after birth. What are the symptoms of cytomegalovirus? Most children and adults who are infected with CMV do not develop symptoms. A healthy immune system can hold the virus in check. Those who develop symptoms may feel tired and may have long-lasting fever, swollen glands, headaches, and enlarged spleen. People with a weak immune system (such as AIDS patients or those receiving chemotherapy) may experience a more serious illness involving fever, pneumonia, and other symptoms. Retinitis and gastrointestinal disease are the most common problems associated with CMV in these patients. How common is cytomegalovirus?

Note, close to the center of the field, the large dark pink nuclear inclusion body surrounded by a clear halo. CMV also causes the development of cytoplasmic inclusions, seen as granules throughout the cytoplasm of the infected cells. Other viruses also cause the formation of inclusions, e.g. herpes, variola, rabies, hepatitis B, etc. It is important to be able to recognize these inclusions in histology specimens Click for image To Next Image To Table of Contents To Alphabetical Index To Start

Additional sources of information Victorian statutory requirement Notification and school exclusion are not required. Infectious agent Cytomegalovirus (CMV) also designated as Human herpesvirus 5, is a member of the subfamily betaherpesvirus of the family herpesviridae. Other members of the herpesvirus group include herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2, varicella zoster virus (which causes chickenpox), and Epstein-Barr virus (which causes infectious mononucleosis/glandular fever). These viruses share a characteristic ability to remain dormant within the body over a long period. Identification Clinical features Pregnancy Healthy pregnant women are not at special risk for disease from CMV infection but between 1% and 5% are infected for the first time during their pregnancy. Many women will already have been exposed to CMV and so are not at risk of a new infection during their pregnancy. When infected with CMV, most pregnant women have no symptoms while a very few have a disease resembling mononucleosis. However, for those women who are infected for the first time during their pregnancy, one in three will pass the CMV infection on to their developing unborn child.
