BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy in kidney transplant

Anales de la Facultad de Medicina, 2015
Two documented cases of BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (BKVN) seen at Hospital Edgardo Rebagliati Martins, EsSalud, Lima, Peru are reported. Final BKVN diagnosis was confirmed by renal biopsy and electron microscopy study. Case 1: Renal functional deterioration was not controlled despite reduction of immunosuppression and addition of antiviral ...

Long‐Term Outcomes of BK Viremia in Kidney Transplant Recipients

Clinical Transplantation, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background BK viremia is associated with worse kidney transplant function and de novo donor‐specific antibodies (DSA), but mortality and graft survival are not impacted in the short‐ and intermediate‐term. The long‐term impact of BK viremia remains unclear.

Similarities and Differences Between Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell and Organ Transplantation and What We Can Learn From Each Other to Guide Global Health Strategy

Clinical Transplantation, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and solid organ transplantation (SOT) have evolved into successful, curative treatments for many severe congenital and acquired diseases. Both use medical products of human origin and should therefore have overarching regulatory frameworks.

Aryl hydrocarbon receptor expression by macrophages and lymphocytes within infiltrates in BK polyomavirus associated nephropathy

Transplant Immunology, 2018
BK virus nephropathy (BKPyVN) is a major complication after renal transplantation. Little is known about the intra renal immune response during BKPyVN. The role of macrophages remains elusive. The activation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) - a transcription factor involved in drug metabolism - plays a key role in inflammation and viral tolerance ...

First‐In‐Human, Randomized, Placebo‐Controlled, SAD and MAD Trial to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and PK/PD Modeling of Potravitug in Healthy Adults

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) affects 10%–30% of kidney‐transplant recipients receiving immunosuppressive therapy, potentially leading to nephropathy, graft dysfunction, graft loss, and increased mortality. Despite the medical need, no targeted therapies exist.

Regulation of Polyomavirus Transcription by Viral and Cellular Factors

Viruses, 2020
Polyomavirus infection is widespread in the human population. This family of viruses normally maintains latent infection within the host cell but can cause a range of human pathologies, especially in immunocompromised individuals.

Polyomavirus Associated Trichodysplasia Spinulosa in a Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipient

Pediatric Transplantation, Volume 29, Issue 5, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS) is an inconspicuous cutaneous infection caused by a distinct polyoma virus affecting the immunocompromised host. TS is rare in children and can masquerade as other dermatological conditions, causing a delay in diagnosis.

A Rare Case of Parvovirus Infection Causing Pure Red Cell Aplasia in a Kidney‐Pancreas Transplant Recipient

Nephrology, Volume 30, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Parvovirus B19 infection can rarely manifest with pure red cell aplasia in immunocompromised hosts. This case details a 48‐year‐old male, 11 years post kidney‐pancreas transplant who was admitted with a chronic normocytic anaemia (haemoglobin 72 g/L) after being admitted four months prior with a bleeding peptic ulcer, requiring eight units of ...
