Urine-derived renal tubular epithelial cells resemble functional characteristics of professional antigen-presenting cells and can directly induce BKV-specific T cell responses
Reactivation of the BK virus (BKV) is a critical adverse event after kidney transplantation and can lead to graft loss. BKV-reactive T cell-mediated viral control can be facilitated by reducing immunosuppression. However, the exact mechanism underlying the T cell-mediated BKV clearance in the kidney...

| Summary: | Reactivation of the BK virus (BKV) is a critical adverse event after kidney transplantation and can lead to graft loss. BKV-reactive T cell-mediated viral control can be facilitated by reducing immunosuppression. However, the exact mechanism underlying the T cell-mediated BKV clearance in the kidney transplant is not clear. |
