The Pacific lineage (2E) of JC polyomavirus is prevalent in Sumba Island, Eastern Indonesia [PDF]

, 2008
Recent studies have identified a Pacific lineage (2E) of JC polyomavirus (also designated as JC virus or JCV) that occurs in both Island Southeast Asia and Oceania, but not in mainland Asia.

BKTyper: Free Online Tool for Polyoma BK Virus VP1 and NCCR Typing

Viruses, 2020
Human BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) prevalence has been increasing due to the introduction of more potent immunosuppressive agents in transplant recipients, and its clinical interest. BKPyV has been linked mostly to polyomavirus-associated hemorrhagic cystitis,

Histologic versus Molecular Diagnosis of BK Polyomavirus–Associated Nephropathy [PDF]

Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2006
Although discovered in 1970 the BK virus infections had no significant clinical impact until the emergence of BK virus-associated allograft nephropathy (BKPVAN). Escalating clinical challenges required better diagnostic tools and delineation of uniform criteria for diagnosis.

BK Polyomavirus-Induced Nephropathy in Native Kidney

, 2023
BK polyomavirus has been well-studied as an opportunistic infection in immunocompromised kidney transplant patients. In the majority of the population, BK polyomavirus establishes a lifelong infection in renal tubular and uroepithelial cells; however, in

BK polyomavirus: latency, reactivation, diseases and tumorigenesis

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
The identification of the first human polyomavirus BK (BKV) has been over half century, The previous epidemiological and phylogenetic studies suggest that BKV prevailed and co-evolved with humans, leading to high seroprevalence all over the world.

BK Polyomavirus in Renal Transplantation: Virological Notes for Monitoring and Diagnosis

Biomolecules
Polyomavirus-associated nephropathy was first reported over 50 years ago. However, it still represents a cause of renal injury in kidney transplant recipients, particularly in the first two years post-transplantation, with occurrence rates of 1–10%.

Polyomavirus Nephropathy in Kidney Transplantation

, 2004
Polyomavirus nephropathy has become an important complication in kidney transplantation, with a prevalence of 1% to 8%. Unfortunately, the risk factors for polyomavirus nephropathy and renal allograft loss are not well defined.

Polyomavirus BK Nephropathy-Associated Transcriptomic Signatures: A Critical Reevaluation

Transplantation Direct, 2018
Background. Recent work using DNA microarrays has suggested that genes related to DNA replication, RNA polymerase assembly, and pathogen recognition receptors can serve as surrogate tissue biomarkers for polyomavirus BK nephropathy (BKPyVN). Methods.

Development of a droplet digital PCR assay for the detection of BK polyomavirus

Microbiology Spectrum
The objective of this study was to establish a more sensitive and specific diagnostic method for detecting plasma BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) DNA load in patients after renal transplantation using droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) and to ...
