Merkel cell polyomavirus infection occurs during early childhood and is transmitted between siblings

2 Jul 2013

Abstract excerpt

Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) is thought to be the etiological agent of Merkel cell carcinoma, but little is known about its distribution and modes of transmission. We conducted seroepidemiological surveys in more than 1000 individuals, from two populations from Cameroon. Overall MCPyV seroprevalence was high in both populations (>75% in adults). Data from the first population, comprising mainly children,...
