Cross‐Neutralizing and Broadly Neutralizing Human Antibodies Against Nonenveloped Viruses
In this review article, Marchand et al. compare cross ‐ and broadly ‐neutralizing human antibodies against non ‐ enveloped viruses from several major families, discussing their structural characteristics, neutralization mechanisms and relevance for the development of antiviral vaccines and therapeutics.

ABSTRACT Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is the leading cause of acute lower respiratory tract infections in infants and represents a major burden to public health systems worldwide. Despite its epidemiological relevance, genomic surveillance of HRSV in Brazil remains limited.

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), an aggressive neuroendocrine skin tumor, is a polyomavirus‐induced human cancer. To study the causal relationship of MCC carcinogenesis with the integrated Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) in detail, well‐characterized MCC ...

As the phylogenetic organization of mammalian polyomaviruses is complex and currently incompletely resolved, we aimed at a deeper insight into their evolution by identifying polyomaviruses in host orders and families that have either rarely or not been ...

Type O blood group associates with higher anti‐JC polyomavirus antibody levels
Background Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and high anti‐JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) antibodies in blood have an increased risk for the development of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) when treated for MS.

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), an aggressive neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin, is to date the only human cancer known to be frequently caused by a polyomavirus. However, it is a matter of debate which cells are targeted by the Merkel cell polyomavirus (

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

The Role of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus and Other Human Polyomaviruses in Emerging Hallmarks of Cancer
Polyomaviruses are non-enveloped, dsDNA viruses that are common in mammals, including humans. All polyomaviruses encode the large T-antigen and small t-antigen proteins that share conserved functional domains, comprising binding motifs for the tumor ...

Merkel cell polyomavirus recruits MYCL to the EP400 complex to promote oncogenesis
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) frequently contains integrated copies of Merkel cell polyomavirus DNA that express a truncated form of Large T antigen (LT) and an intact Small T antigen (ST).

Anion homeostasis is important for non-lytic release of BK polyomavirus from infected cells [PDF]
BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a member of a family of potentially oncogenic viruses, whose reactivation can cause severe pathological conditions in transplant patients, leading to graft rejection. As with many non-enveloped viruses, it is assumed that virus
