Acute Kidney Injury and BK Polyomavirus in Urine Sediment Cells
, 2023 Polyomaviruses are widespread, with BK viruses being most common in humans who require immunosuppression due to allotransplantation. Infection with BK polyomavirus (BKV) may manifest as BK virus-associated nephropathy and hemorrhagic cystitis ...

Agnoprotein Is an Essential Egress Factor during BK Polyomavirus Infection [PDF]
, 2018 BK polyomavirus (BKPyV; hereafter referred to as BK) causes a lifelong chronic infection and is associated with debilitating disease in kidney transplant recipients. Despite its importance, aspects of the virus life cycle remain poorly understood.

Exposing the Molecular Machinery of BK Polyomavirus [PDF]
Structure, 2016 BK polyomavirus (BKV) is an opportunistic pathogen that poses a serious threat to organ transplant recipients. In this issue of Structure, Hurdiss and colleagues' (Hurdiss et al., 2016) beautiful new high-resolution cryo-EM reconstruction of BKV provides a structural roadmap for the ongoing development of therapeutic antibodies and vaccines targeting ...

Evaluation of polyomavirus BK reactivation in lupus patients who underwent kidney transplantation
Microbiologia Medica, 2012 Background. A pathogenic role for polyomavirus BK in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has been proposed, however no study evaluated the occurrence of BK replication in renal transplant recipients according to the underlying disease leading to ...

Absence of DNA viruses in ameloblastomas
European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Ameloblastomas (ABs) are rare odontogenic benign tumors. Although studies of the molecular pathogenesis have revealed the presence of mutations and altered gene expression, the etiology is unresolved. Viruses cause 10%–15 % of cancers, but their potential role within benign tumors is less studied.

Recipient–Donor Sex Combinations and Posttransplant Infections: A Swiss Transplant Cohort Study
Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.In this cohort study of 5033 patients, only the recipient sex, in particularly kidney recipients, was independently associated with an increased risk of infections, when compared to males. These findings indicate that recipient–donor sex combination does not influence short‐term solid organ transplantation outcome.

Modelling BK Polyomavirus dissemination and cytopathology using polarized human renal tubule epithelial cells. [PDF]
, 2023 Most humans have a lifelong imperceptible BK Polyomavirus (BKPyV) infection in epithelial cells lining the reno-urinary tract. In kidney transplant recipients, unrestricted high-level replication of donor-derived BKPyV in the allograft underlies ...
