Human leukocyte antigen-C*08 increases the risk of BK virus viremia in kidney transplant recipients.

Transplant immunology - 1 Feb 2026

Thivierge Marie-Pier, Béland Stéphanie, Désy Olivier, De Serres Sacha A

Abstract excerpt

BK virus (BKV) infection can cause graft loss in kidney transplant recipients. Several factors increase the risk of infection, including high level of immunosuppression, older age, and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatch. The primary function of the major histocompatibility complex (HLA in human) is the presentation of peptides that originated from foreign or self-antigens to T cells to trigger an immune...
