Exposing the Molecular Machinery of BK Polyomavirus [PDF]
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 ...

Paediatric renal transplantation: Paediatric surgeons' perspective
Abstract Renal transplantation is the most effective treatment for paediatric end‐stage renal disease (ESRD), offering advantages in survival, growth and neurocognitive development that surpass other renal replacement therapies (RRT). The paediatric setting, however, introduces distinct complexities that distinguish it from adult practice.

Absence of DNA viruses in ameloblastomas
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.

BK virus infection, replication, and diseases in pediatric kidney transplantation [PDF]
Polyomavirus-associated nephropathy is diagnosed in 2-8% of pediatric renal transplants and often precedes renal allograft dysfunction. Without intervention, however, significant graft dysfunction is observed in more than 50% of cases, although ...
