HLA-B Leader Dimorphism Predicts BK Polyomavirus Replication After Kidney Transplant. [PDF]
ABSTRACT BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV) often replicate after kidney transplantation, with management limited to reducing immunosuppression and risking rejection. Among genetic factors that may modulate the antiviral response, HLA evolutionary divergence (HED, allowing a greater diversity of antigen presentation) and the HLA‐B leader

BKPyV-Co-Architect of the Fate of a Renal Transplant During a One-Year Observation Period. [PDF]
To identify BKPyV, the VP1 protein sequence was analyzed and classified into genotypes in 246 RTRs before and after RTx from deceased donors during a one-year observation period. Quantitative assessment of BKPyV was conducted via qPCR. Prior to RTx, genotypes I and IV were identified in the urine (7.27 × 106; 1.20 × 105) and in serum (5.75 × 104; 1.12 ×

A cluster of broadly neutralizing IgG against BK polyomavirus in a repertoire dominated by IgM
FACS sorting of patient B cells with fluorescent BKPyV VLPs, followed by 10xGenomics scRNAseq, generated a large dataset of BKPyV-specific antibody sequences, among which we were able to identify and characterize broadly neutralizing antibodies.

1189. Correlation of BK polyomavirus (BKPyV)-specific Immunity and BKPyV Viruria within 6 months after Kidney Transplantation: A Prospective Cohort Study [PDF]
Abstract Background Since viral-specific immunity has been shown to be correlated with viral containment in solid organ transplant recipients, we investigated an association of BK polyomavirus (BKPyV)-specific immunity and BKPyV viruria in kidney transplant (KT) recipients.

Human Polyomavirus BK Genome Analysis in BKPyV Induced Rodent Cell Lines. [PDF]
In this study, we analyzed the BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) genome derived from three rodent cell lines established from BKPyV induced tumors. BKPyV derived one cell line had a large deletion. The noncoding control region (NCCR) of BKPyV derived from these cell lines had the same structure as viruses induced tumors.

A systematic review. Current understanding of the infection caused by Betapolyomavirus hominis
Reactivation of Betapolyomavirus hominis (BKPyV) in kidney and hematopoietic stem cell recipients can lead to serious complications such as BKPyV-associated nephropathy followed by transplant rejection and BKPyV-associated hemorrhagic cystitis.

Fatal BK polyomavirus-associated pneumonia: report of two cases with literature review
Background In immunocompromised populations, such as patients with AIDS and recipients of solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplants, BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) can reactivate and cause several diseases, which can lead to death in their severe ...
