Cytomegalovirus (CMV) induces the expansion of a unique subset of human NK cells expressing high levels of the activating CD94-NKG2C receptor that persist after control of the infection. We investigated whether this subset is indeed CMV-specific or is also responsive to acute infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Here we describe a longitudinal study of CMV-seronegative and -seropositive students who were acutely infected with EBV. The NKG2Chi NK subset was not expanded by EBV infection. However, EBV infection caused a decrease in the absolute number of immature CD56brightCD16− NK cells in the blood, and in CMV-seropositive individuals, induced an increased frequency of mature CD56dimNKG2A+CD57+ NK cells in the blood that persisted into latency. These results provide further evidence that NKG2C+ NK cells are CMV-specific, and suggest that EBV infection alters the repertoire of NK cells in the blood.
