Identification of human cytomegalovirus phosphoprotein 65 in C57BL/6 and BXSB mice as a potential trigger of systemic lupus erythematosus related serum markers

Objective:: To investigate the potential role of human cytomegalovirus lower matrix phosphoprotein 65 (HCMV-pp65) in murine systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods:: The prokaryotic plasmid pET-28b-pp65 was constructed to express the HCMV-pp65 protein. BXSB mice and C57BL/6 mice were inoculated...
