Abstract
The potential for a donor-derived transmission of porcine cytomegalovirus/porcine roseolovirus (PCMV/PRV) to the recipient has been recognized since pigs were considered candidate donors for xenotransplantation. This review gives a short description of the viral properties and summarizes the current evidence of the effects of PCMV/PRV transmission in preclinical xenotransplantation. Despite evidence that PCMV/PRV does not infect human and non-human primate cells, activation in the transplanted organ and detrimental systemic complications have been described. As PCMV/PRV is a herpesvirus able to establish latency, the importance of adequate screening of donor pigs is emphasized, as no efficient treatment is available. Furthermore, easy and successful ways of elimination of PCMV/PRV from pig herds are indicated.
期刊介绍：
Xenotransplantation provides its readership with rapid communication of new findings in the field of organ and tissue transplantation across species barriers.The journal is not only of interest to those whose primary area is xenotransplantation, but also to veterinarians, microbiologists and geneticists. It also investigates and reports on the controversial theological, ethical, legal and psychological implications of xenotransplantation.
