Seroepidemiology of Human Polyomaviruses in a US Population.
Polyomaviruses (PyV) are potentially tumorigenic in humans. However, limited data exist on the population seroprevalence of PyVs and individual characteristics that relate to seropositivity. Using multiplex serology, we determined the seroprevalence of 10 human PyVs (BK, JC, KI, WU, MCV, HPyV6, HPyV7, TSV, HPyV9, and HPyV10) among controls from a population-based skin cancer case-control study ...
متن کاملSeroepidemiology of Human Polyomaviruses
In addition to the previously characterized viruses BK and JC, three new human polyomaviruses (Pys) have been recently identified: KIV, WUV, and Merkel Cell Py (MCV). Using an ELISA employing recombinant VP1 capsid proteins, we have determined the seroprevalence of KIV, WUV, and MCV, along with BKV and JCV, and the monkey viruses SV40 and LPV. Soluble VP1 proteins were used to assess crossreact...
متن کاملSeroepidemiology of the human polyomaviruses.
To assess the stability of polyomavirus antibodies in serial samples over time and the incidence and age-specific prevalence of polyomavirus infections, we established enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) using purified yeast-expressed virus-like particles (VLPs) containing the VP1 major capsid proteins of JC virus (JCV) and the AS and SB strains of BK virus (BKV). A random subsample of 150 Finnish women...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus Seroepidemiology: a Population-based Study in Alborz Province, Iran
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a type of herpes virus. This virus is one of the most common causes of congenital and prenatal infections. CMV infection in pregnant women, especially in the first trimester, may lead to congenital abnormalities in newborns. The prevalence of CMV infection in developed countries is approximately 40%, and in developing countries, this prevalence may be up to 100%. ...
متن کاملSeroepidemiology of Hepatitis A in Population under 30 years old in Rural Area of Zabol
Abstract Hepatitis A , like any other intestinal diseases, is common across the world. But its prevalence and epidemiological feature vary according to sanitation and crowded of people. This study which was conducted in the spring of 1377 (1998) aims at the evaluation of epidemiologic pattern of hepatitis A in Zabol. 229 people from rural area of Zabol were randomly selecteted and investigated...
