Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method for determining whether a cytomegalovirus infection in a transplanted patient is susceptible to induce allograft rejection comprising detecting the presence of at least one HLA-E-restricted CD8 αβ T cell population displaying reactivity against peptides derived from the leader sequences of both HCMV-UL40 protein and allogeneic classical HLA-I molecules in a blood sample of the patient, wherein the presence of said populations indicated that the cytomegalovirus infection in the transplant patient is susceptible to induce allograft rejection.
