High expression of JC polyomavirus-encoded microRNAs in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy tissues and its repressive role in virus replication.

PLoS Pathogens, 2020
JC polyomavirus (JCPyV, JCV) causes progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in immunocompromised hosts. JCPyV replicates in oligodendrocytes within the brain tissue of patients with PML.

Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury and Immunosuppressants Promote Polyomavirus Replication Through Common Molecular Mechanisms

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundBK polyomavirus (BKPyV)-associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN) causes renal allograft dysfunction and graft loss. However, the mechanism of BKPyV replication after kidney transplantation is unclear.

From Data to Decisions: How Machine Learning and Generative Artificial Intelligence Are Redefining Precision Medicine in Kidney Transplantation

Organ Medicine, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 102-118, June 2026.
This review evaluates how machine learning, multimodal integration, and generative AI optimize kidney transplant outcomes. These tools enable superior prediction and personalized therapy but face hurdles in data volume, generalizability, and ethics. Future clinical adoption depends on continued innovation and multidisciplinary collaboration to overcome

A highly potent human antibody neutralizing all serotypes of BK polyomavirus.

PLoS Pathogens
BK polyomavirus infection poses a significant risk to kidney transplant recipients. Reactivation of dormant virus in the transplanted kidney, triggered by immunosuppression, can lead to BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy in up to 10% of transplants ...

Predominant Tubular Interleukin-18 Expression in Polyomavirus-Associated Nephropathy

Transplantation, 2016
Polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PVAN) occurs in a significant percentage of renal transplant recipients, with BK virus reactivation as the main causative agent. PVAN leads to tubular damage and may result in allograft loss. In this study, we analyzed the antiviral immune response in PVAN.

Paediatric renal transplantation: Paediatric surgeons' perspective

Surgical Practice, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 117-122, May 2026.
Abstract Renal transplantation is the most effective treatment for paediatric end‐stage renal disease (ESRD), offering advantages in survival, growth and neurocognitive development that surpass other renal replacement therapies (RRT). The paediatric setting, however, introduces distinct complexities that distinguish it from adult practice.
