The case for BK polyomavirus as a cause of bladder cancer

Current Opinion in Virology, 2019
In 2014, the International Agency for Research on Cancer judged Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) to be a probable human carcinogen. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV, a distant cousin of MCPyV) was ruled a possible carcinogen. In this review, we argue that it has recently become reasonable to view both of these viruses as known human carcinogens.

Risk factors for BK viremia in kidney transplant recipients [PDF]

, 2015
Background. In the past 20 years, BK virus has emerged as a cause of early graft dysfunction after kidney transplantation. In the setting of chronic immunosuppression (IS), the latent virus can reactivate, leading to BK viremia (10-20%) and in 1-10% of ...
