Summary
Brief summary
Since the inception of human organ transplantation, HCMV remains single most-important cause of infectious morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised transplant patients. This project is designed to develop immunotherapeutic strategies based on adoptve transfer of virus-specific killer T cells for the treatment of HCMV infection in transplant patients.
