For diagnosis of the interstitial pneumonia conditioned by cytomegalovirus (CMV) an indirect immunofluorescence test was used to measure IgM and IgG antibodies to CMV in 369 serum specimens from 41 patients after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). An interstitial pneumonia conditioned by CMV was diagnosed in 5 patients either serological (4 patients) or by detection of cytomegaloviral infection typical inclusion bodies in lung cells (1 patient). The detection of antibodies to CMV for diagnosis of interstitial pneumonia conditioned by CMV is problematical in the phase immediately after BMT because bone marrow recipients are severely immunosuppressed by radiation and cytotoxic drugs received before transplantation. New method for detection of CMV-specific antigens are necessary.

D011658 Pulmonary Fibrosis A process in which normal lung tissues are progressively replaced by FIBROBLASTS and COLLAGEN causing an irreversible loss of the ability to transfer oxygen into the bloodstream via PULMONARY ALVEOLI. Patients show progressive DYSPNEA finally resulting in death.

D003586 Cytomegalovirus Infections Infection with CYTOMEGALOVIRUS, characterized by enlarged cells bearing intranuclear inclusions. Infection may be in almost any organ, but the salivary glands are the most common site in children, as are the lungs in adults.

D003587 Cytomegalovirus A genus of the family HERPESVIRIDAE, subfamily BETAHERPESVIRINAE, infecting the salivary glands, liver, spleen, lungs, eyes, and other organs, in which they produce characteristically enlarged cells with intranuclear inclusions. Infection with Cytomegalovirus is also seen as an opportunistic infection in AIDS.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
