Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection and Detection [PDF]
Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) infection can lead to Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), a highly aggressive form of skin cancer. Mechanistic studies to fully investigate MCPyV molecular biology and oncogenic mechanisms have been hampered by a lack of adequate cell culture models.

Mining for viral fragments in methylation enriched sequencing data [PDF]
Most next generation sequencing experiments generate more data than is required for the experimental set up. For example, methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) affinity purification based sequencing is often used for DNA-methylation profiling, but up to 30% of

Polyomavirus infection in renal allograft
A 32-year-old-man, an Alport Syndrome carrier X link genetic disorder,1 has developed renal insufficiency and has been on peritoneal dialysis for 10 months. In June/2011, he underwent a kidney (cadaver) transplantation with 3 panel mismatch, reactivity of lymphocytes Class I and II 0% and MIC-A negative.

Serological Diagnosis of Human Polyomavirus Infection [PDF]
Measurement of antibody titres to the human polyomaviruses BK and JC has for many years had to rely on Hemagglutination inhibition. In recent years, viral serology based on virus-like particles (VLPs) in enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) has become widely used for a variety of viruses. We sought to establish a modern method for serological diagnosis of BK and

Seroprevalence of Trichodysplasia Spinulosa–associated Polyomavirus
We identified a new polyomavirus in skin lesions from a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS). Apart from TS being an extremely rare disease, little is known of its epidemiology.

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