WU and KI polyomavirus infections in Filipino children with lower respiratory tract disease

Journal of Clinical Virology, 2016
WU and KI are human polyomaviruses initially detected in the respiratory tract, whose clinical significance remains uncertain.To determine the epidemiology, viral load and clinical characteristics of WU and KI polyomaviruses.We tested respiratory specimens collected during a randomized, placebo-controlled pneumococcal conjugate vaccine trial and ...

KI, WU and Merkel cell polyomaviruses: A new era for human polyomavirus research

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2009
The recent discoveries of KI, WU, and Merkel cell polyomaviruses (PyVs) have rekindled interest in the Polyomaviridae and their relation to human disease. Although it may be too early to draw firm conclusions, it seems apparent that these new viruses follow precedents established by other Py viruses: a benign initial infection at an early age ...

Molecular detection and phylogenetic analysis of KI polyomavirus and WU polyomavirus in respiratory tract samples from children under five

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease
We aimed to investigate the frequency of KI and WU polyomavirus in respiratory tract samples, the affected groups by these viruses and their clinical characteristics. Although the viruses had been discovered in 2007, their pathogenicity and virulence have not been fully elucidated yet.We examined 182 nasopharyngeal aspirate/swab samples obtained ...

[Discovery and identification of WU polyomavirus in children from Zhejing region].

Bing du xue bao = Chinese journal of virology, 2008
WU polyomavirus, which was firstly discovered in 2007, is a new human polyomavirus belonging to Polyomaviridae and containing circular double-stranded genomic DNA. In this study, the 278 clinical sputum specimens from children under 5 years old were collected from Wenzhou Medical College affiliated Wenling First Hospital, Zhejiang Province.

[Sequencing and analysis of the complete genome sequence of WU polyomavirus in Fuzhou, China].

Bing du xue bao = Chinese journal of virology, 2011
WU polyomavirus (WUPyV), a new member of the genus Polyomavirus in the family Polyomaviridae, is recently found in patients with respiratory tract infections. In our study, the complete genome of the two WUPyV isolates (FZ18, FZTF) were sequenced and deposited in GenBank (accession nos. FJ890981, FJ890982).

[Detection and clinical characterization of WU polyomavirus in acute respiratory tract infection in children].

Zhonghua er ke za zhi = Chinese journal of pediatrics, 2011
WU polyomavirus (WUPyV), a new member of the genus Polyomavirus in the family Polyomaviridae, has been found to be associated with respiratory tract infections recently. But the role of the WUPyV as agents of human disease remains uncertain. We sought to describe the detection and clinical characterization of WUPyV in acute respiratory tract infection ...
