Abstract:

Lymphotropic polyomavirus (LPyV), a nonhuman primate polyomavirus, is classified as a strain of African green monkey polyomavirus. The newly identified putative human polyomaviruses (HPyV) WU polyomavirus (WUPyV), KI polyomavirus (KIPyV), and Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) have yet to be formally classified. Antemortem direct microscopic examination of tissue is performed less commonly for progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) than for polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (PVAN) due to the risks involved in obtaining brain biopsy material. PCR methods can be classified as having either conventional or real-time formats. For JCPyV and BKPyV, two types of serological tests have been described, including hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) and enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) employing either crude antigens or the use of virus-like particles (VLPs). Detection of an antibody response by HAI is based on the capacity of specific antiviral antibodies to inhibit the agglutination of human erythrocytes mediated by the viral structural VP1 proteins of JCPyV and BKPyV. Current approaches to therapy include having optimal highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for HIV-infected patients, with the aim of increasing CD4 cell counts and decreasing the HIV RNA level. The current trend in laboratory testing for PVAN is to monitor levels of the BKPyV in urine and blood and to reduce immunosuppression when viruria or viremia reaches levels that predict progression to disease.

MR image showing the brain of a patient with lesions of advanced PML. Lesions are seen bilaterally in frontal lobes and in parieto-occipital subcortical regions. Note that the cortex is spared, with lesions primarily in the white matter, consistent with the pathology of demyelination of white matter tracts (fluid-attenuated inversion recovery T2-weighted MR).
