Torque teno virus loads and leukocyte populations in stable outpatient solid organ transplant recipients
These results provide evidence to support the theory that TTV replicates in immature granulocytes. The negative association with total granulocyte count suggests possible antiviral effects or altered granulocyte lifespan. These relationships may help clinical interpretation of TTV as a marker of immune function.
