BK polyomavirus infection promotes growth and aggressiveness in bladder cancer
Background Recent studies have confirmed the integration of the BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) gene into the cellular genome of urothelial carcinomas in transplant recipients, further confirming the correlation between BKPyV and urothelial carcinomas after ...

Novel human polyomaviruses in pregnancy: Higher prevalence of BKPyV, but no WUPyV, KIPyV and HPyV9 [PDF]
Immunosuppression due to pregnancy may lead to higher susceptibility to infections and reactivation of latent infections, such as BK polyomavirus (BKPyV). There is lack of information about the prevalence of novel human polyomavirus 9 (HPyV9), WU (WUPyV) and KI (KIPyV) during pregnancy.To study whether pregnancy results in higher prevalence of HPyV9 ...

Production of recombinant VP1-derived virus-like particles from novel human polyomaviruses in yeast [PDF]
Background: Eleven new human polyomaviruses (HPyVs) have been identified in the last decade. Serological studies show that these novel HPyVs sub-clinically infect humans at an early age.

First-In-Human, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, SAD and MAD Trial to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and PK/PD Modeling of Potravitug in Healthy Adults. [PDF]
ABSTRACT BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) affects 10%–30% of kidney‐transplant recipients receiving immunosuppressive therapy, potentially leading to nephropathy, graft dysfunction, graft loss, and increased mortality. Despite the medical need, no targeted therapies exist.

Serum IgG antibodies from pregnant women reacting to mimotopes of simian virus 40 large T antigen, the viral oncoprotein [PDF]
Simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen (LT) coding sequences were revealed in different human samples, whereas SV40 antibodies (Ab) were detected in human sera of cancer patients and healthy individuals, although with a lower prevalence. Previous studies
