An Accurate Genetic Colocalisation Method for the HLA Locus

HLA, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic colocalisation analyses are frequently conducted to determine if causal signals at a genetic locus are shared between two phenotypes. However, colocalisation is rarely undertaken at the HLA locus, due to its complex linkage disequilibrium (LD) and high polymorphism density.

Polyomaviruses KI and WU in Immunocompromised Patients with Respiratory Disease

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Polyomaviruses KI (KIPyV) and WU (WUPyV) were recently identified, mainly in respiratory specimens from children. Among 200 patients with respiratory disorders admitted to Saint Louis Hospital, Paris, France, KIPyV was detected in 8% and WUPyV in 1 ...

BK polyomavirus microRNA expression and sequence variation in polyomavirus-associated nephropathy

Journal of Clinical Virology, 2018
BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) infection is a common asymptomatic viral infection in the general population. Severe complications are seen in immunocompromised individuals, such as polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PyVAN) in renal transplant recipients. Information on BKPyV microRNA expressions is scarce, although polyomavirus-encoded microRNAs have been ...

Seroprevalence of Trichodysplasia Spinulosa–associated Polyomavirus

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
We identified a new polyomavirus in skin lesions from a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS). Apart from TS being an extremely rare disease, little is known of its epidemiology.

An Interesting Case Report of Trichodysplasia Spinulosa in a Case of B-cell Lymphocytic Leukemia

Indian Journal of Paediatric Dermatology
Trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS) is a rare dermatologic condition characterized by follicular-based shiny papules and alopecia with characteristic histopathologic findings. This condition is unique to patients with TS-associated polyoma virus infection who

Polyomavirus – Infektion unter Immunsuppression

Swiss Medical Forum ‒ Schweizerisches Medizin-Forum, 2015
Bei immunsupprimierten und/oder nierentransplantierten Patienten kann das BK-Virus durch Entwicklung einer sogenannten Polyomavirus-Nephropathie zur Funktionsverschlechterung, zum Transplantatverlust und im spateren Verlauf zur Dialysepflicht fuhren.

WU Polyomavirus in Children, Canada

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
WU polyomavirus was detected in nasopharyngeal aspirates in 2 (2.5%) of 79 children with respiratory infections (both infected with respiratory syncytial virus) and in 5 (6.4%) of 78 asymptomatic children during the same winter season in Canada. The strains were closely related to Australian and American viruses based on analysis of large T antigen ...

Polyomavirus nephropathy.

Saudi journal of kidney diseases and transplantation : an official publication of the Saudi Center for Organ Transplantation, Saudi Arabia, 2012
We have seen the re-emergence of a virus, normally latent in the urinary tract, which becomes activated in renal transplant patients due to potent immunosuppression. Polyomavirus reactivates within the allograft kidney, causing renal dysfunction and graft loss in 40 to70% of patients with overt renal dysfunction and histologically proven Polyomavirus ...
