Polyomavirus BK and prostate cancer: an unworthy scientific effort?

30 Apr 2014

Abstract excerpt

The Polyomavirus BK (BKV) has been proposed to be one of the possible co-factors in the genesis of prostate cancer (PCa) but, so far, the only convincing suggestion is the hypothesis of a "hit and run" carcinogenic mechanism induced by the virus at early stages of this disease. To support this hypothesis we conducted an updated systematic review on previous studies regarding the association between BKV and PCa,...
