Advances in Research on Human Cytomegalovirus Infection of Vascular Endothelial Cells / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

As one of the risk factors for atherosclerosis,human cytomegalovirus infection has received increasing attention,while cytomegalovirus infection of vascular endothelial cells is considered as the initial stage of causing atherosclerosis.Therefore,elucidating the mechanism of human cytomegalovirus infection of vascular endothelial cells will help further confirm the viral and etiological theories of atherosclerosis,and may block its occurrence and development from the initial stage of infection.
