Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a type of herpesvirus that can infect humans as well as other organisms and is one example of a condition that can cause cytoplasmic staining. The human variant, HCMV, only causes massive damage to patients with suppressed immune systems such as those with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).

Cytoplasmic staining occurs when the liquid contained within a cell is discolored. This occurs for one of two reasons: either because the cell has become deficient in some way or because it has been stained for the purposes of scientific analysis. Viruses such as the cytomegalovirus and cancers such as hepatocellular carcinoma can cause granulated staining of the cytoplasm. Scientists stain cytoplasms in order to create a color contrast when studying specific elements of a cell.
The cytoplasm is a viscous liquid contained within a cell’s membrane. It is a feature of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The cytoplasm in a prokaryotic cell contains all of the cell's genetic material, proteins and other materials. In a eukaryotic cell, many of the cell's functions are performed within self-contained organelles. Nearly 70 percent of a eukaryotic cell’s cytoplasm is made up of cytosol, the actual liquid, which contains mostly water, salt and soluble molecules such as proteins, lipids and carbohydrates.
