Phosphoinositide 3′-Kinase γ Facilitates Polyomavirus Infection [PDF]

Viruses, 2020
Polyomaviruses are small, non-enveloped DNA tumor viruses that cause serious disease in immunosuppressed people, including progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in patients infected with JC polyomavirus, but the molecular events mediating ...

Brincidofovir inhibits polyomavirus infection in vivo

mBio
Polyomaviruses are species-specific DNA viruses that can cause disease in immunocompromised individuals. Despite their role as the causative agents for several diseases, there are no currently approved antivirals for treating polyomavirus infection ...

Antibodies Can Extenuate Polyomavirus Infections. [PDF]

J Am Soc Nephrol, 2018
We read the article “Neutralizing antibody-mediated response and risk of BK virus–associated nephropathy” by Solis et al. [1][1] with great interest. Although a cell-mediated immune response is crucial for overcoming and clearing polyoma-BK virus infections and polyoma virus nephropathy ...

Microtubules in Polyomavirus Infection [PDF]

Viruses, 2020
Microtubules, part of the cytoskeleton, are indispensable for intracellular movement, cell division, and maintaining cell shape and polarity. In addition, microtubules play an important role in viral infection. In this review, we summarize the role of the microtubules’ network during polyomavirus infection.

Immunity to polyomavirus infection: The polyomavirus–mouse model [PDF]

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2009
A ubiquitous clinically silent murine pathogen, polyomavirus has enjoyed long-term co-evolution with the mouse, a highly tractable and genetically and immunologically informative small animal model. Thus, polyomavirus has provided a valuable experimental construct to decipher the host immune mechanisms that come into play to control systemic low-level ...

BK Polyomavirus Infection and Renourinary Tumorigenesis [PDF]

American Journal of Transplantation, 2016
BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) infection represents a major problem in transplantation, particularly for renal recipients developing polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PyVAN). The possibility that BKPyV may also be oncogenic is not routinely considered.

Clinical and Epidemiologic Characterization of WU Polyomavirus Infection, St. Louis, Missouri

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
WU polyomavirus is a recently described polyomavirus found in patients with respiratory infections. Of 2,637 respiratory samples tested in St. Louis, Missouri, 2.7% were positive for WU polyomavirus by PCR, and 71% were coinfected with other respiratory ...

The Role of Histone Post-Translational Modifications in Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) is a rare but highly aggressive form of non–melanoma skin cancer whose 5-year survival rate is 63%. Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV), a small DNA tumor virus, is the etiological agent of MCC.
