METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR INHIBITING POLYOMAVIRUS-ASSOCIATED PATHOLOGY |
摘要 |
Disclosed herein are methods of eliciting an immune response against a polyomavirus (for example, BKV serotype I (BKV-I), BKV serotype II (BKV-II), BKV serotype III (BKV-III) and/or BKV serotype IV (BKV-IV)) and methods of treating or inhibiting polyomavirus-associated pathology (such as polyomavirus-associated nephropathy, BKV-associated hemorrhagic cystitis, or JC virus-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy; PML). Further disclosed are immunogenic compositions of use in the disclosed methods. Also disclosed are methods of selecting an organ transplant donor and/or recipient including detecting whether the prospective donor and/or recipient has BKV serotype-specific (such as BKV serotype IV-specific) neutralizing antibodies. |
