T cell deficiency precipitates antibody evasion and emergence of neurovirulent polyomavirus

eLife, 2022
JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) causes progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a life-threatening brain disease in immunocompromised patients. Inherited and acquired T cell deficiencies are associated with PML.

Antiviral regulator TRIM25 as a prognostic marker of better survival in Merkel cell carcinoma: Association with MCPyV status

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 12, Page 3268-3278, 15 June 2026.
What's new? TRIM25 is known for its role in antiviral immunity and association with poor prognosis in various cancers. This study reveals an association between high TRIM25 expression and Merkel cell polyomavirus positivity in Merkel cell carcinoma.

Identification of Novel Wraparound Transcripts in JC Polyomavirus

Journal of Medical Virology
ABSTRACT JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) is a ubiquitous pathogen that causes progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Although a recent study using next‐generation sequencing (NGS) provided detailed transcriptome atlases for polyomaviruses (PyVs) such as BK polyomavirus and simian virus 40, the transcriptome of JCPyV remains poorly ...

Review on the role of the human Polyomavirus JC in the development of tumors [PDF]

Infectious Agents and Cancer, 2017
Almost one fifth of human cancers worldwide are associated with infectious agents, either bacteria or viruses, and this makes the possible association between infections and tumors a relevant research issue. We focused our attention on the human Polyomavirus JC (JCPyV), that is a small, naked DNA virus, belonging to the Polyomaviridae family. It is the

A Retrograde Trafficking Inhibitor of Ricin and Shiga-Like Toxins Inhibits Infection of Cells by Human and Monkey Polyomaviruses

mBio, 2013
Polyomaviruses are ubiquitous pathogens that cause severe disease in immunocompromised individuals. JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) is the causative agent of the fatal demyelinating disease progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), whereas BK ...

Genetic variability of the VP1 gene of BK and JC polyomaviruses in HIV-infected patients [PDF]

Medicinski Podmladak, 2015
Human polyomaviruses, BK virus (BKV) and JC virus (JCV), are world widely distributed in human population. After primary infection, BKV and JCV establish latency in kidneys and upper part of urinary tract. In seropositive healthy individuals asymptomatic

Diversity Patterns of Domestic Herbivore Viruses in China Reveal Transmission Dynamics with Disease Management Implications

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.

An Accurate Genetic Colocalisation Method for the HLA Locus

HLA, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic colocalisation analyses are frequently conducted to determine if causal signals at a genetic locus are shared between two phenotypes. However, colocalisation is rarely undertaken at the HLA locus, due to its complex linkage disequilibrium (LD) and high polymorphism density.

Prevalence and Molecular Profiling of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus in Patients With Monkeypox Virus Infection

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Mpox, caused by Monkeypox virus (MPXV), is associated with mucosal involvement and immune modulation that may influence viral coinfections. Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV), a ubiquitous virus capable of lifelong persistence, was investigated in 66 Mpox patients enrolled at Lazzaro Spallanzani National Institute for Infectious Diseases (Rome ...

Polyomavirus JC microRNA expression after infection in vitro

Virus Research, 2016
The in vitro expression of the Polyomavirus JC (JCPyV) microRNAs, JC-miRNA-3p and -5p, at early time points post-infection was investigated. The expression of the JCPyV microRNAs was monitored in hematopoietic progenitor KG-1 cells and in kidney fibroblast-like COS-7 cells transformed with SV40 after infection with a JCPyV CY archetype viral clone.
