Production of recombinant VP1-derived virus-like particles from novel human polyomaviruses in yeast [PDF]
Background: Eleven new human polyomaviruses (HPyVs) have been identified in the last decade. Serological studies show that these novel HPyVs sub-clinically infect humans at an early age.

Control of Archetype BK Polyomavirus MicroRNA Expression
The BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) miRNA plays an important role in regulating viral large-T-antigen expression and limiting the replication of archetype BKPyV, suggesting that the miRNA regulates BKPyV persistence. However, how miRNA expression is regulated is poorly understood.

Prevalence of Polyomavirus BK and JC Infection and Replication in 400 Healthy Blood Donors [PDF]
BackgroundThe replication of BK virus (BKV) and JC virus (JCV) is linked to polyomavirus-associated nephropathy, hemorrhagic cystitis, and multifocal leukoencephalopathy in immunodeficient patients, but the behavior of these viruses in immunocompetent ...

KI and WU polyomaviruses and CD4+ cell counts in HIV-1- infected patients , Italy [PDF]
To investigate an association between KI and WU polyomavirus (KIPyV and WUPyV) infections and CD4+ cell counts, we tested HIV-1–positive patients and blood donors.

VP‐1 quasispecies in human infection with polyomavirus BK [PDF]
AbstractPolyomavirus BK is a recognized cause of nephropathy and hemorrhagic cystitis in kidney or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. This study explored a role of genetic variations in capsid protein VP‐1 gene as a factor in viral pathogenesis.

Electrochemical Biosensor for Rapid Detection of Acute Rejection in Kidney Transplants
A low‐cost, rapid electrochemical immunosensor coated with a novel antifouling nanocomposite enables single‐step, dual‐biomarker profiling directly from unprocessed urine. Application in a clinical study shows accurate discrimination of acute rejection in kidney transplants from other acute kidney injuries via machine learning.

Risk factors for polyoma virus nephropathy [PDF]
Background. Polyoma virus-associated nephropathy (PVN) is a common cause of renal transplant failure. The risk factors for the development of PVN have not yet been studied in large cohorts of patients for periods of 20 years. Methods.

The prevalence of the most important viral infections in renal transplant recipients in Serbia [PDF]
Viruses are the main cause of opportunistic infections after kidney transplantation. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), B. K. virus (BKV) and John Cunningham virus (JCV) infections

ABSTRACT Kidney transplantation increases the survival rate of end‐stage renal disease patients; however, acute rejection and glomerulonephritis, such as the uncommon non‐lupus full‐house nephropathy (NLFHN), can lead to graft dysfunction. NLFHN exhibits a characteristic lupus immunofluorescence pattern in the absence of systemic lupus features, which ...
