The WU polyomavirus (WUPyV) was detected by real-time PCR in the sputum of a pediatric liver transplant recipient with interstitial pneumonitis. A lower viral load was observed seven months after the initial detection. The case provides circumstantial evidence suggesting a potential role for WUPyV as a respiratory pathogen in immunocompromised children.
实时 PCR 检测到一名小儿肝移植受者的痰中有 WU 多瘤病毒(WUPyV)。在初次检测后七个月观察到较低的病毒载量。该病例提供了间接证据,表明 WUPyV 可能是免疫功能低下儿童的呼吸道病原体。
