BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a risk factor for bladder cancer through induction of APOBEC3-mediated genomic damage

2021-05-17

Abstract excerpt

Limited understanding of bladder cancer aetiopathology hampers progress in reducing incidence. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a common childhood infection that can be reactivated in the adult kidney leading to viruria. Here we used a mitotically-quiescent, differentiated, normal human urothelial in vitro model to study BKPyV infection. BKPyV infection led to significantly elevated APOBEC3A and APOBEC3B protein, incre...
