Prevalence of cytomegalovirus and BK polyoma virus infection in post-renal transplant patients in a tertiary care centre in South India [PDF]

Journal of Nephropathology, 2017
Background: Viral infections are a significant cause of graft loss and dysfunction in kidney transplant recipients. Cytomegalovirus and BK polyomavirus have often been explained as the most common viral etiological agents.

Unraveling the Role of Allo-Antibodies and Transplant Injury. [PDF]

, 2016
Alloimmunity driving rejection in the context of solid organ transplantation can be grossly divided into mechanisms predominantly driven by either T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) and antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR), though the co-existence of both ...

Should SVGp12 Be Used for JC Polyomavirus Studies? Comment on Prezioso et al. COS-7 and SVGp12 Cellular Models to Study JCPyV Replication and MicroRNA Expression after Infection with Archetypal and Rearranged-NCCR Viral Strains. Viruses 2022, 14, 2070

Viruses, 2022
A recent paper in Viruses investigates the impact of the JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) microRNA on the replication of different JCPyV strains. Unfortunately, one of the cell lines used, the human fetal glial cell line SVGp12, is productively infected by the ...

BK Polyomavirus and the Transplanted Kidney [PDF]

Transplantation, 2016
BK polyomavirus is ubiquitous, with a seropositivity rate of over 75% in the adult population. Primary infection is thought to occur in the respiratory tract, but asymptomatic BK virus latency is established in the urothelium. In immunocompromised host, the virus can reactivate but rarely compromises kidney function except in renal grafts, where it ...

Persistently high-level polyomavirus BK replication in the absence of renal function abnormalities in a kidney transplant recipient

Microbiologia Medica, 2016
Polyomavirus-associated nephropathy is an important cause of allograft dysfunction and graft loss after kidney transplantation. Even if histological evaluation is the gold standard for graft study and diagnosis of polyomavirus-associated nephropathy, K ...

The Potential Role of BK and JC Polyomaviruses in Urothelial Cancer

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences
Background:    BK and JC polyomaviruses are perceived as the two most common human polyomaviruses (HPyVs). These two viruses inhabit the epithelial surfaces of the bladder and kidney as the primary site of replication and latency.

Polyomavirus infections and its clinical relevance in cancer patients: A Prospective Study

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2017
Summary: BK and JC polyomaviruses (PyV) have been demonstrated to be associated with the pathogenesis of various human cancers. We aimed to investigate the impact of BK and JC polyomavirus infections on several clinical parameters in different human ...
