Human Polyomavirus Related to African Green Monkey Lymphotropic Polyomavirus
While studying the virome of the skin surface of a patient with a Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) by using unbiased, high-throughput sequencing, we identified a human polyomavirus nearly identical to human polyomavirus 9, a virus recently reported in blood ...

Isolation and characterization of a novel putative human polyomavirus. [PDF]
The small double-stranded DNA polyomaviruses (PyVs) form a family of 73 species, whose natural hosts are primarily mammals and birds. So far, 13 PyVs have been isolated in humans, and some of them have clearly been associated with several diseases, including cancer. In this study, we describe the isolation of a novel PyV in human skin using a sensitive

Seroprevalence and Cross-reactivity of Human Polyomavirus 9
Many humans have antibodies against simian lymphotropic polyomavirus (LPyV), but its DNA has not been found in humans. Identification of human polyomavirus 9 (HPyV9) led us to compare the seroprevalence and cross-reactivity of LPyV and HpyV9.

Novel human polyomaviruses, Merkel cell polyomavirus and human polyomavirus 9, in Japanese chronic lymphocytic leukemia cases [PDF]
Background Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the rarest adult leukemia in Japan, whereas it is the most common leukemia in the Western world. Recent studies from the United States and Germany suggest a possible etiological association between Merkel ...

Role of BK human polyomavirus in cancer. [PDF]
Human polyomaviruses (HPyV), which are small DNA viruses classified into the polyomaviridae family, are widely distributed in human populations. Thirteen distinct HPyVs have been described to date. Some of these viruses have been found in human tumors, suggesting an etiological relationship with cancer.

Seroprevalence of Human Malawi Polyomavirus [PDF]
ABSTRACT The seroprevalence of the recently discovered human Malawi polyomavirus (MWPyV) was determined by virus-like particle-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in age-stratified Italian subjects. The findings indicated that MWPyV infection occurs early in life, and seroprevalence was shown to reach 42% in adulthood.

Identification of MW Polyomavirus, a Novel Polyomavirus in Human Stool [PDF]
ABSTRACT We have discovered a novel polyomavirus present in multiple human stool samples. The virus was initially identified by shotgun pyrosequencing of DNA purified from virus-like particles isolated from a stool sample collected from a healthy child from Malawi.

Identification of a Third Human Polyomavirus [PDF]
ABSTRACT We have previously reported on a system for large-scale molecular virus screening of clinical samples. As part of an effort to systematically search for unrecognized human pathogens, the technology was applied for virus screening of human respiratory tract samples.

Prevalence and in vitro study of human polyomavirus 9. [PDF]
Little is known about human polyomavirus 9 (HPyV9). The mode of transmission and the site of replication are unknown, and seroprevalence data have been published with a wide range. A total of 1038 serum samples from individuals aged 0.7-93 years were used for seroprevalence study.
