Mesenchymal stem cells are susceptible to human herpesviruses, but viral DNA cannot be detected in the healthy seropositive individual
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is often complicated by reactivation of herpesviruses. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are immunomodulatory and may be used to treat graft-versus-host disease. We investigated if herpesviruses infect and can be transmitted by MSC, and...
