[Correlation between the indices of immunity and virus elimination in cytomegalovirus infection].
Correlations between titres of complement-fixing antibody, levels of E-RFC, Ea-RFC, EAC-RFC, EA-RFC, and the intensity of virus excretion in the saliva and urine of women with chronic form of cytomegaly, as well as the effect of decaris in vitro on the level of E-RFC were studied. The highest antibody titres were found in subjects with generalized infection (virus excretion in the saliva and urine) and in cases where high concentrations of the virus were found in the salivary gland cells. In these subjects, total levels of E-RFC and their active subpopulations were decreased. The lowest antibody titres were found in women excreting no virus in the study period. Relative amounts of E-RFC and Ea-RFC in them were within normal ranges. No correlation between the levels of EAC-RFC, EA-RFC, and virus excretion was found. Decaris in vitro normalized the reduced values of E-RFC. Theoretical substantiation of the possibility of using this drug for treatment of patients with cytomegalovirus infection is presented.
