China Received June 14, 2017; Accepted January 5, 2018 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2018.8419 Abstract. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is the regulation of HCMV genomic DNA synthesis, which is a key primary viral cause of congenital abnormalities and mental step during HCMV infection leading to neurological disease. retardation in newborns. The HCMV UL141-encoded glyco- protein has been previously revealed to inhibit the cell-surface Introduction expression of cluster of differentiation (CD)155, CD122, tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand death Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous herpes virus (TRAIL)-receptor 1 (R1) and TRAIL-receptor 2 (R2), thus with infection rate of ~50-80% in females of reproductive age protecting virally-infected cells by allowing them to escape from different regions of the world, including Australia, Canada, natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity. The present study United States, Sweden, Finland, Spain, United Kingdom and investigated the interaction between HCMV UL141 and Ghana (1). Following an HCMV infection, the primary clinical human fetal brain cDNA to elucidate the possible effects of manifestations in healthy people are asymptomatic reces- UL141 on the nervous system. The findings of the current sive or latent infections.
