Summary.

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) displays genetic variability and can cause a wide range of diseases in neonates. To explore the relationship between polymorphisms and clinical manifestations, the UL144 genes from 73 clinical strains were sequenced. All of the strains, which came from 70 infants with suspected congenital and/or perinatal HCMV infection, were non-passage strains. Among them, 23 strains were from surgery specimens, and the others were from urine samples. Clinically, 12 infants displayed asymptomatic infection and 58 patients displayed symptomatic infection. The results showed that 36 patients (49.3%) were infected with strains belonging to UL144 group G1 (G1a 33/36, G1b 3/36), 19 patients (28.8%) were infected with strains belonging to group G2, and 15 patients (21.9%) were infected with strains belonging to group G3. This result indicated that UL144 group G1 was the predominant genotype in congenital and/or perinatal HCMV infection in northern China. Compared with the distribution pattern of strains in UL144 genotypes of data from Chicago, Iowa and Texas, and Japan by chi-square test, the difference was statistically significant. This suggested that the distribution pattern of strains in UL144 genotype was related to geographic location. However, no linkage was observed between the UL144 genotypes and the severity and/or outcome of HCMV disease.
