Exploitation of Unconventional CD8 T-Cell Responses Induced by Engineered Cytomegaloviruses for the Development of an HIV-1 Vaccine by Joseph Bruton, Tomáš Hanke

“…However, CMVs are highly species-adapted viruses and it is yet to be shown whether the success of RhCMV68-1 can be translated into an HCMV ortholog for humans. Despite some safety concerns regarding using HCMV as a vaccine vector in humans, there is a vision of immune programming of HCMV to induce pathogen-tailored CD8⁺ T-cells effective against HIV-1 and other life-threatening diseases.…”
