Detection of Merkel cell polyomavirus large T-antigen sequences in human central nervous system tumors

9 Mar 2015

Abstract excerpt

Despite decades of epidemiological investigation, little is known about the etiology of the central nervous system (CNS) tumors, and few well-established risk factors have been recognized. This study tested the presence of Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV), the only member of the Polyomaviridae family convincingly linked to human cancer, in diverse CNS malignancies. In total, 58 CNS tumor biopsies were analyzed...
