Noninvasive diagnosis of BK virus nephritis by measurement of messenger RNA for BK VP1 virus in urine

27 Jul 2003

Abstract excerpt

We thank Dr. Hirsch for his thoughtful comments (1). He correctly states that decoy cells can arise not only from renal tubular cells but also from urothelial cells. We are in general agreement with his statement that “shedding of decoy cells is highly sensitive, but not specific for BK virus nephropathy.” Nickeleit et al. (2) claim, “The extraction of mRNA from urinary cells is technically challenging, highly...
