VP‐1 quasispecies in human infection with polyomavirus BK [PDF]
Journal of Medical Virology, 2011 AbstractPolyomavirus BK is a recognized cause of nephropathy and hemorrhagic cystitis in kidney or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. This study explored a role of genetic variations in capsid protein VP‐1 gene as a factor in viral pathogenesis.

Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 28, Issue 2, March/April 2026.Third‐party, BK virus‐specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) were safe and effective in reducing viremia in kidney and stem cell transplant recipients with BK virus nephropathy. However, they did not improve kidney function. Earlier administration may be more beneficial before nephropathy and irreversible damage occur.

Electrochemical Biosensor for Rapid Detection of Acute Rejection in Kidney Transplants
Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 1, 9 January 2026.A low‐cost, rapid electrochemical immunosensor coated with a novel antifouling nanocomposite enables single‐step, dual‐biomarker profiling directly from unprocessed urine. Application in a clinical study shows accurate discrimination of acute rejection in kidney transplants from other acute kidney injuries via machine learning.
