BK virus (BKV) infection after kidney transplantation can cause BKV nephropathy (BKVAN)
resulting in graft dysfunction and allograft loss. The treatment for BKVAN is reduction of the …

To investigate the relationship between neutralization escape and persistent high-level BK
polyomavirus replication after kidney transplant (KTx), VP1 sequences were determined by …

Background Although cytomegalovirus (CMV)-seropositive solid organ transplant recipients
have a relatively lower risk of CMV infection than CMV-seronegative recipients who receive …

The reactivation of polyomavirus BK (BKPyV) contributes to increased morbidity and
mortality rate of transplant patients, especially kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). CD4+ T …

Background The effects of cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific cell-mediated immunity (CMI) on
CMV infection in patients with autoimmune diseases receiving immunosuppressants have …

Background BK virus-associated hemorrhagic cystitis (BKV-HC) is a serious complication
after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). It can cause morbidity …

Background: Non-specific interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) enzyme-linked immunosorbent
(ELISpot) responses after solid organ transplant (SOT) and their relationship with …

Abstract Reactivation of Polyomavirus BK (BKPyV) is related to reduction of T cells response
in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Here, we examined the differentiation of CD4+ T cells …

The BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is an opportunistic pathogen, which is only pathogenic in
immunosuppressed individuals, such as kidney transplant recipients, in whom BKPyV can …

The current standard pharmacokinetic monitoring of immunosuppressive therapy does not
