Human Polyomaviruses in Children Undergoing Transplantation, United States, 2008–2010

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
Immunocompromised patients are at risk for disease caused by infection by some polyomaviruses. To define the prevalence of polyomaviruses in children undergoing transplantation, we collected samples from a longitudinal cohort and tested for the 9 known ...

Association Between the Time of Day of Post‐Transplant Cyclophosphamide Administration and Haemorrhagic Cystitis After Allogeneic Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the impact of the time‐of‐day (daytime vs. nighttime) of the infusion of post‐transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) on the occurrence of haemorrhagic cystitis (HC) in adult patients undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo‐HSCT).

Merkel cell carcinoma: an updated guide for pathologists

open access: yesHistopathology, EarlyView.
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an aggressive cutaneous neuroendocrine carcinoma for which the differential diagnosis can include other small cell malignancies (especially metastatic small cell carcinoma) or cutaneous carcinoma. Morphologic and immunophenotypic aberrancies in MCC can increase diagnostic challenge.

The lymphocyte function of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell grafts is associated with relapse and cytomegalovirus reactivation

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a treatment primarily for hematological malignancies. Infections, relapse, and graft versus host disease (GvHD) are some of the most common adverse events following HSCT. We aimed to evaluate whether the lymphocyte function of the stem cell graft was associated with these ...

Human polyomavirus BKV infection of endothelial cells results in interferon pathway induction and persistence

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2019
Polyomavirus BKV is highly prevalent among humans. The virus establishes an asymptomatic persistent infection in the urinary system in healthy people, but uncontrolled productive infection of the virus in immunocompromised patients can lead to serious ...

Polyomavirus T Antigen Induces APOBEC3B Expression Using an LXCXE-Dependent and TP53-Independent Mechanism

open access: yesmBio, 2019
APOBEC3B is a single-stranded DNA cytosine deaminase with beneficial innate antiviral functions. However, misregulated APOBEC3B can also be detrimental by inflicting APOBEC signature C-to-T and C-to-G mutations in genomic DNA of multiple cancer types ...

Merkel Cell Carcinoma With Divergent Differentiation—Or Something Else? A Triphasic Cutaneous Carcinoma With Lineage Plasticity

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, Volume 53, Issue 11, Page 994-999, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, aggressive cutaneous neuroendocrine carcinoma that typically arises in sun‐exposed skin of older or immunosuppressed patients. Combined or collision tumors involving MCC and other cutaneous malignancies are uncommon, and tumors exhibiting more than two distinct malignant phenotypes are exceptionally rare.

Chk1 and the Host Cell DNA Damage Response as a Potential Antiviral Target in BK Polyomavirus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The human BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is latent in the kidneys of most adults, but can be reactivated in immunosuppressed states, such as following renal transplantation.

Lanreotide, a Somatostatin Analogue, in Advanced Merkel Cell Carcinoma: A Prospective Single‐Arm Phase II Study

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, aggressive neuroendocrine and epithelial skin cancer. Somatostatin analogues, such as lanreotide, have shown efficacy in managing other neuroendocrine tumors. Retrospective studies suggest that lanreotide may induce partial response or disease stabilization in patients with advanced MCC.
