Age-specific seroprevalence of human polyomavirus 12 and Saint Louis and New Jersey polyomaviruses

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2018
The presence of specific antibodies against human polyomavirus 12, Saint Louis polyomavirus and New Jersey polyomavirus was investigated by using virus-like particle-based ELISAs with serum samples from 706 Italians aged 1- to 100-years-old. The findings

BK polyomavirus nephropathy in two kidney transplant patients with distinct diagnostic strategies for BK virus and similar clinical outcomes: two case reports

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy is an important cause of post-transplantation renal failure. We present two cases of BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy who were submitted to contrasting strategies of clinical follow-up to BK ...

Glomerulonephritis with crescents in polyomavirus nephropathy

Indian Journal of Nephrology, 2022
Polyomavirus nephropathy (PVN) is a known complication of renal transplantation due to the reactivation of latent BK virus (BKV) infection. Viral replication is usually confined to tubules. However, in severe viremia and late stages of PVN, it can involve glomerular parietal epithelial cells.
