JC polyomavirus-encoded miRNA jcv-miR-J1-5p downregulates BK polyomavirus infection

open access: yes
International audienceBK and JC Polyomavirus are closely related and establish persistence in infected subjects. Recent studies suggest that JC Polyomavirus replication prevents BK Polyomavirus-related pathologies in kidney transplant recipients.

Silver-enhanced in situ hybridization for detection of polyomavirus DNA in patients with BK virus nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BK virus nephropathy is not an infrequent complication of renal transplantation associated with high rates of graft loss. Although antibodies against SV40 antigen detect different viruses of the polyomavirus family, immunohistochemistry is widely used to

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 ...

Genome Sequence of a Central Chimpanzee-Associated Polyomavirus Related to BK and JC Polyomaviruses, Pan troglodytes troglodytes Polyomavirus 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We amplified and sequenced the genome of a polyomavirus infecting a central chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes troglodytes). This virus, which is closely related to BK and JC polyomaviruses, may help shed a new light on these human pathogens’ evolutionary ...

The case for BK polyomavirus as a cause of bladder cancer

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2019
In 2014, the International Agency for Research on Cancer judged Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) to be a probable human carcinogen. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV, a distant cousin of MCPyV) was ruled a possible carcinogen. In this review, we argue that it has recently become reasonable to view both of these viruses as known human carcinogens.

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 ...
