Using a rapid, clinically compliant culture system, we show that autologous BK virus-specific T cell lines can be reliably generated from viremic KTR. Our results pave the way for the treatment or prevention of PVAN with adoptive immunotherapy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
