Cytomegalovirus infection and immunity in renal allograft recipients: assessment of the competence of humoral immunity
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
It is concluded that despite immunosuppressant therapy (with azathioprine and corticosteroids), humoral immunity to CMV is not impaired in transplant patients with either a primary or secondary infection.
