An obscure retrovirus shows up in two-thirds of people diagnosed with the condition and can infect human immune cells, scientists report online October 8 in Science.
Studying this syndrome in collaboration with scientists from the National Cancer Institute and the Cleveland Clinic, the instituteÕs researchers discovered that a large majority of people diagnosed with that and similar diseases carry a recently discovered retrovirus, called XMRV, in their blood.
We now have evidence that a retrovirus named XMRV is frequently present in the blood of patients with CFS," said Judy Mikovits, director of research for the Whittemore Peterson Institute (WPI) located at the University of Nevada, Reno, one of the organizations which led the research.
