title: Cytomegalovirus: recent progress in understanding pathogenesis and control.
abstract: Cytomegalovirus continues to be an important pathogen in a variety of patient groups especially the neonate and the transplant recipient, and has implicated in a range of pathologies including inflammatory disease and in contributing to early death in ageing populations. This review will focus on advances in understanding the virus-host interaction and options for the new therapeutic control measures.
