Quantitative microbial risk assessment with microbial source tracking for enteric pathogens in southwest Wisconsin private wells

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Private wells supply drinking water for many households, and their contamination by fecal microbes presents a risk of acute gastrointestinal illness (AGI). Risk is thought to vary by contaminating fecal source, but specific associations with fecal source are unknown for most private wells in the United States. This study characterizes AGI risk

A Retrograde Trafficking Inhibitor of Ricin and Shiga-Like Toxins Inhibits Infection of Cells by Human and Monkey Polyomaviruses

mBio, 2013
Polyomaviruses are ubiquitous pathogens that cause severe disease in immunocompromised individuals. JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) is the causative agent of the fatal demyelinating disease progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), whereas BK ...

JC Polyomavirus Infection: A Narrative Review

Infectious Diseases and Therapy
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a devastating and often fatal central nervous system infection caused by John Cunningham polyomavirus virus (JCPyV). PML results from JCPyV reactivation in the setting of impaired cellular immunity in patients with HIV, organ transplantation, severe inflammatory disease, and an increasing number of ...

The interplay between viral-derived miRNAs and host immunity during infection [PDF]

, 2019
MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression during cellular processes. The host-encoded miRNAs are known to modulate the antiviral defense during viral infection.

Polyomavirus in Saliva of HIV-infected Children, Brazil

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
To the Editor: Human polyomaviruses (HPyVs) are members of the family Polyomaviridae. Nine distinct PyVs can infect humans: BKPyV, JCPyV, WUPyV, KIPyV, MCPyV, TSPyV, HPyV6, HPyV7, and HPyV9 (1). Primary infections generally occur early in life, are typically subclinical, and are followed by persistence of the virus in the person.
