Journal ArticleDOI

Polyomavirus Infection of Renal Allograft Recipients From Latent Infection to Manifest Disease

TL;DR: It is concluded that a manifest renal allograft infection with PV (BK strain) can persist in heavily immunosuppressed patients with recurrent rejection episodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyomavirus disease under new immunosuppressive drugs: a cause of renal graft dysfunction and graft loss.

TL;DR: Recurrent rejection episodes and high dose immunosuppressive therapy, including tacrolimus, are risk factors for manifest PV kidney graft infection, which has an ominous prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

BK-virus nephropathy in renal transplants—tubular necrosis, MHC-class II expression and rejection in a puzzling game

TL;DR: BK-virus nephropathy is reviewed as a new complication that increasingly affects renal allografts and causes dysfunction and attempts to lower immunosuppression as a means to control viral replication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of the complement degradation product C4d in renal allografts: Diagnostic and therapeutic implications

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that C4d-positive rejection might benefit from intensive therapy, potentially preventing the previously reported high graft failure rate and identifying a humoral alloresponse in a subgroup of kidney transplants, which is often associated with signs of cellular rejection.
