Comprehensive proteomic analysis of JC polyomavirus-infected human astrocytes and their extracellular vesicles

Alexey Sapozhnik, Samuel Jones

JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) is an opportunistic virus that remains in a latent state in the kidneys and lymphoid organs of more than half of the human adult population. In rare cases of severe immune suppression, the virus is able to establish a lytic infectio ...
