We studied 54 consecutive recipients of renal transplants to evaluate their immunological responses to cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. Forty-three (79.6%) patients developed CMV infection, and all of them subsequently recovered. Fourteen of these infected patients (32.6%) developed viraemia during the infectious process, four of whom then manifested the disease. The number of lymphocytes and their main subpopulations was normal before the appearance of CMV infection. During the infection there was a significant growth (P < 0.001) in the CD8+DR+ subset, corresponding to activated T suppressor/cytotoxic lymphocytes, whereas the natural killer measured subsets remained within normal limits during the whole infectious process. As all viraemic patients recovering from the infection developed CD8+DR+ activation, we conclude that this recovery is associated with the immunological activation.
