Humoral response to John Cunningham virus during pregnancy in multiple sclerosis [PDF]
Pregnancy induces an immunosuppressive state in the mother to ensure immunological acceptance of the foetus. Impairment of cell-mediated immune responses may render the mother susceptible to intracellular pathogens. It is not presently known whether pregnancy alters the immunosurveillance for John Cunningham virus (JCV), an opportunistic pathogen ...

Although seroepidemiological studies indicate that greater than 50% of the population has been infected with John Cunningham virus (JCV), the sites of JCV persistence remain incompletely characterized.To determine sites of JCV persistence in immunologically healthy individuals.Tissue specimens from multiple sites including brain, renal, and nonrenal ...

The John Cunningham virus (JCV) is a generally benign and asymptomatic polyomavirus. Due to an association of the anti-integrin agent natalizumab with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), a newly developed anti-JCV antibody assay has been implemented as a risk-stratification tool for natalizumab ...

Background and purposeInfection with the John Cunningham virus (JCV) is required for the development of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, the feared complication of natalizumab treatment in multiple sclerosis patients. The JCV seroconversion rate seems higher in natalizumab treated patients than in the normal population, with an unknown cause.

Introduction: Presence of anti-JC-virus antibodies (JCVAbs) is associated with the increased risk of natalizumab (NAT)-related progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Little is known about seroconversion rate and time to seroconversion in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients treated with NAT in Poland.

Monitoring the John Cunningham virus throughout natalizumab treatment in multiple sclerosis patients
European Journal of Neurology, 2015Background and purposeProgressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) cases have arisen amongst multiple sclerosis patients treated with natalizumab. Our objective was to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms that underlie the John Cunningham virus (JCV) infection which causes PML.MethodsA study was made of (i) the quarterly JCV DNA levels in ...

Abstract A 69-year-old woman presented with progressive dysarthria and cognitive deficits. On MRI, a T2-hyperintense, non–contrast-enhancing lesion was found in the left precentral area. 18F-FET and 18F-FDG PET scans revealed faint amino acid uptake and glucose hypometabolism of the lesion.

Analysis of John Cunningham Virus DNA in Immunosuppressed Patients
2023Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system caused by John Cunningham Virus (JCV). JCV is rarely pathogenic in immunocompetent individuals but can reactivate in immunosuppressed patients and cause PML. This study aimed to analyze JCV DNA in immunosuppressed patients by quantitative real-time
