| Function | Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a member of the herpes virus group which includes herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2; Varicella Zoster Virus, which causes chicken pox; and Epstein Barr virus, which causes infectious mononucleosis. These viruses remain dormant within the body over a long period. In humans, CMV is known as HCMV or human herpesvirus 5 (HHV-5). It resides in body fluids, including urine, saliva, breast milk, blood, tears, semen and vaginal fluids. CMV especially targets salivary glands and may also be devastating or even fatal to fetuses. CMV infection can also be life threatening for patients who are immunocompromised, such as individuals with HIV or organ trans plant recipients. |
