Roles of ATM and ATR-mediated DNA damage responses during lytic BK polyomavirus infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2012
BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is an emerging pathogen whose reactivation causes severe disease in transplant patients. Unfortunately, there is no specific anti-BKPyV treatment available, and host cell components that affect the infection outcome are not well ...

Polyomavirus BK Genome Comparison Shows High Genetic Diversity in Kidney Transplant Recipients Three Months after Transplantation

open access: yesViruses, 2022
BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a human DNA virus generally divided into twelve subgroups based on the genetic diversity of Viral Protein 1 (VP1). BKPyV can cause polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PVAN) after kidney transplantation.

Electrochemical Biosensor for Rapid Detection of Acute Rejection in Kidney Transplants

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Antigenic cross-reactivity among MCPyV-, BKPyV- and JCPyV-LPs.

open access: yes, 2015
Hyperimmune sera were obtained from rats that were immunized with MCPyV-, BKPyV- and JCPyV-LPs, respectively. Titers of anti-MCPyV-, BKPyV- and JCPyV-LP-IgG were determined by ELISA.

Organ Transplantation: Current Status, Challenges, and Future Prospects

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Organ transplantation success relies on precise modulation of the alloimmune response across distinct temporal phases of rejection. Hyperacute rejection results from preformed antibodies activating complement and causing thrombosis, while acute rejection involves T cell‐ and antibody‐mediated mechanisms that drive endothelial activation and ...

BKPyV is mainly released into the apical compartment.

open access: yes, 2023
(A) Polarized RPTECs were apically infected (MOI 0.3) and supernatants were collected at the indicated timepoints for BKPyV-DNA load (log 10 copies/ml) determination by qPCR.

Interferon-alpha and MxA inhibit BK polyomavirus replication by interaction with polyomavirus large T antigen

open access: yesBiomedical Journal
Introduction: BK Polyomavirus (BKPyV) infection is a common complication in kidney transplant recipients and can result in poor outcomes and graft failure. Currently, there is no known effective antiviral agent.

BKTyper: Free Online Tool for Polyoma BK Virus VP1 and NCCR Typing

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Human BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) prevalence has been increasing due to the introduction of more potent immunosuppressive agents in transplant recipients, and its clinical interest. BKPyV has been linked mostly to polyomavirus-associated hemorrhagic cystitis,

The K68S mutation targets BKPyV to the SV40 receptor GM1.

open access: yes, 2013
STD difference spectra of (A) BKPyV K68S with GD3, (B and C, respectively) BKPyV K68S and SV40 with GM1. (D) SV40-GM1 off-resonance spectrum. A 50-fold excess of oligosaccharide was used for each spectrum.

BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a risk factor for bladder cancer through induction of APOBEC3-mediated genomic damage

open access: yes, 2022
Limited understanding of bladder cancer aetiopathology hampers progress in reducing incidence. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a common childhood infection that can be reactivated in the adult kidney leading to viruria.
