High Incidence and Early Onset of Urinary Tract Cancers in Patients with BK Polyomavirus Associated Nephropathy [PDF]

Viruses, 2021
Over-immunosuppressed kidney transplant recipients are susceptible to malignancies and BK polyomavirus (BKPyV)-associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN). This study aimed to verify the association between BKPyV infection and urinary tract cancers (UTC).

Clinical and immunological characteristics for BK polyomavirus‐associated nephropathy after kidney transplantation [PDF]

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2023
Introduction BK polyomavirus (BKPyV)‐associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN) can cause a significant risk of allograft impairment after kidney transplantation (KT). Intact BKPyV‐specific immunity is associated with viral containment.

Lateral Flow Assay to detect CXCL10 as a diagnose-supporting biomarker for Polyomavirus-associated Nephropathy (PVAN) after kidney transplantation (KTx) [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Kidney grafts, as the most transplanted organs, require intensive monitoring to ensure optimal transplant survival rates for patients. These rates can be jeopardized by severe, difficult-to-treat opportunistic infections such as polyomavirus, which can ...
