A rare urinary JC virus reactivation after long-term therapy with rituximab [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021
The possible role of JC virus in determining urinary tract involvement has only recently been recognized. The case of a man with laboratory-confirmed JC virus replication in the urine after a maintenance schedule of rituximab administered for a ...

Adaptive mutations in the JC virus protein capsid are associated with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
PML is a progressive and mostly fatal demyelinating disease caused by JC virus infection and destruction of infected oligodendrocytes in multiple brain foci of susceptible individuals.

Human polyomavirus JC virus genome [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Virology, 1984
The complete DNA sequence of the human JC virus, which was found to consist of 5,130 nucleotide pairs, is presented. The amino acid sequence of six proteins could be deduced: the early, nonstructural proteins, large T and small t antigens; the late capsid proteins, VP1, VP2, and VP3; and the agnogene product encoded within the late leader sequence ...

JC virus-induced progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in a presumably healthy patient [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2022
Background JC virus (JCV) is common among healthy individuals and remains latent but may be reactivated under immunosuppressive conditions, resulting in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML).

JC virus detection and JC virus-specific immunity in natalizumab-treated Multiple Sclerosis patients [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2012
Background The use of natalizumab in multiple sclerosis (MS) may favour JC virus reactivation; this phenomenon is usually asymptomatic but can, albeit rarely, evolve into frank progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy (PML). Methods JCV-specific CD8+ T

Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy in a HIV-Negative Patient with Small Lymphocytic Leukemia following Treatment with Rituximab [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2011
We describe a case of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) caused by infection with the human polyomavirus JC virus in a patient with B-cell small lymphocytic leukemia who was treated with rituximab.

Oligosaccharides as Receptors for JC Virus [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Virology, 2002
ABSTRACT JC virus (JCV) belongs to the polyomavirus family of double-stranded DNA viruses and in humans causes a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy. Its hemagglutination activity and entry into host cells have been reported to depend on an N-linked glycoprotein containing sialic ...

Increased p53 immunopositivity in anaplastic medulloblastoma and supratentorial PNET is not caused by JC virus [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2005
Background p53 mutations are relatively uncommon in medulloblastoma, but abnormalities in this cell cycle pathway have been associated with anaplasia and worse clinical outcomes. We correlated p53 protein expression with pathological subtype and clinical
