Phosphoinositide 3′-Kinase γ Facilitates Polyomavirus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Polyomaviruses are small, non-enveloped DNA tumor viruses that cause serious disease in immunosuppressed people, including progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in patients infected with JC polyomavirus, but the molecular events mediating ...

Late BK Nephropathy 15 years post kidney transplant following chemotherapy: A case report

open access: yesIDCases
BK Polyomavirus (BKPyV) is an important risk factor for premature graft loss following kidney transplant. Current practice guidelines recommend screening for BK virus DNA for 2 years after kidney transplant as the risk of BK Polyomavirus associated ...

A Retrograde Trafficking Inhibitor of Ricin and Shiga-Like Toxins Inhibits Infection of Cells by Human and Monkey Polyomaviruses

open access: yesmBio, 2013
Polyomaviruses are ubiquitous pathogens that cause severe disease in immunocompromised individuals. JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) is the causative agent of the fatal demyelinating disease progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), whereas BK ...

BK polyomavirus infection: more than 50 years and still a threat to kidney transplant recipients

open access: yesFrontiers in Transplantation
BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a ubiquitous human polyomavirus and a major infection after kidney transplantation, primarily due to immunosuppression. BKPyV reactivation can manifest as viruria in 30%–40%, viremia in 10%–20%, and BK polyomavirus-associated ...

An unusually high substitution rate in transplant-associated BK polyomavirus in vivo is further concentrated in HLA-C-bound viral peptides.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Infection with human BK polyomavirus, a small double-stranded DNA virus, potentially results in severe complications in immunocompromised patients. Here, we describe the in vivo variability and evolution of the BK polyomavirus by deep sequencing.

Polyomavirus specific cellular immunity: from BK-virus-specific cellular immunity to BK-virus-associated nephropathy ?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
In renal transplantation, BK-virus-associated nephropathy has emerged as a major complication, with a prevalence of 5–10% and graft loss in >50% of cases. BK-virus is a member of the Polyomavirus family and rarely induces apparent clinical disease in the

The natural history of BK polyomavirus and the host immune response after stem cell transplantation.

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2019
BACKGROUND BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is associated with symptomatic hemorrhagic cystitis after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Little is known about the host immune response, effectiveness of antiviral treatment, or impact of asymptomatic ...
