    • Detection Analysis and Study of Genomic Region Variability of JCPyV, BKPyV, MCPyV, HPyV6, HPyV7 and QPyV in the Urine and Plasma of HIV-1-Infected Patients 

      Passerini, Sara; Prezioso, Carla; Prota, Annalisa; Babini, Giulia; Coppola, Luigi; Lodi, Alessandra; Epifani, Anna Chiara; Sarmati, Loredana; Andreoni, Massimo; Moens, Ugo; Pietropaolo, Valeria; Ciotti, Marco (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-17)
      Since it was clearly established that HIV/AIDS predisposes to the infection, persistence or reactivation of latent viruses, the prevalence of human polyomaviruses (HPyVs) among HIV-1-infected patients and a possible correlation between HPyVs and HIV sero-status were investigated. PCR was performed to detect and quantify JCPyV, BKPyV, MCPyV, HPyV6, HPyV7 and QPyV DNA in the urine and plasma samples ...

    • Detection of human neurotropic JCPyV DNA sequence in pediatric anaplastic xanthoastrocytoma 

      Passerini, Sara; Prezioso, Carla; Prota, Annalisa; Babini, Giulia; Bargiacchi, Lavinia; Bartolini, Daniela; Moens, Ugo; Antonelli, Manila; Pietropaolo, Valeria (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-25)
      Due to its peculiar histopathological findings, pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA), a rare cerebral tumor of young adults with a slow growth and a good prognosis, resembles to the lytic phase of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by JC polyomavirus (JCPyV). Therefore, the presence of JCPyV DNA was examined in an 11-year-old child with xanthoastrocytoma, ...

    • Detection of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV) DNA and Transcripts in Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) 

      Passerini, Sara; Prezioso, Carla; Babini, Giulia; Ferlosio, Amedeo; Cosio, Terenzio; Campione, Elena; Moens, Ugo; Ciotti, Marco; Pietropaolo, Valeria (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-06-29)
      Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) is the etiological agent of the majority of Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC): a rare skin tumor. To improve our understanding of the role of MCPyV in MCCs, the detection and analysis of MCPyV DNA and transcripts were performed on primary tumors and regional lymph nodes from two MCC patients: one metastatic and one non-metastatic. MCPyV-DNA was searched by a quantitative ...
