Merkel Cell Polyomavirus DNA in Persons without Merkel Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) DNA was detected in 88% of Merkel cell carcinomas in contrast to 16% of other skin tumors. MCPyV was also found in anogenital and oral samples (31%) and eyebrow hairs (50%) of HIV-positive men and in forehead swabs (62 ...

Evaluating CK20 and MCPyV Antibody Clones in Diagnosing Merkel Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesEndocrine Pathology
Abstract Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is diagnosed through histopathological and immunohistochemical examination of biopsies from skin or other organs. Its distinguishing features include perinuclear dot-like staining with Cytokeratin 20 (CK20) and detection of Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) using various methods.

Different Serologic Behavior of MCPyV, TSPyV, HPyV6, HPyV7 and HPyV9 Polyomaviruses Found on the Skin

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The polyomavirus family is rapidly expanding with twelve new human viruses identified since 2007. A significant number of the new human polyomaviruses (HPyV) has been found on the skin. Whether these viruses share biological properties and should be grouped together is unknown.

Merkel cell polyomavirus protein ALTO modulates TBK1 activity to support persistent infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens
While Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV or MCV) is an abundant virus frequently shed from healthy skin, it is one of the most lethal tumor viruses in immunocompromised individuals, highlighting the crucial role of host immunity in controlling MCPyV ...

Increased Detection of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus in Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer and Its Association with Host Immunogenetic Profile

open access: yesDermato
Background: Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) has been established as an etiological agent in Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), yet its role in other cutaneous neoplasms remains under investigation. The impact of the host’s immunogenetic characteristics on the

Replication, Gene Expression and Particle Production by a Consensus Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV) Genome

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV) genomes are clonally integrated in tumor tissues of approximately 85% of all Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) cases, a highly aggressive tumor of the skin which predominantly afflicts elderly and immunosuppressed patients. All integrated viral genomes recovered from MCC tissue or MCC cell lines harbor signature mutations in ...
