چکیده

Viral infections have been associated with increased risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). We conducted a nested case-control study to investigate the association between prediagnostic serum antibodies to the human polyomaviruses, JC (JCV) and BK (BKV), and subsequent risk of NHL. Two research serum banks were established in Washington County, Maryland, in 1974 and 1989, with the collection of blood samples from >45,000 volunteers. Incident NHL cases diagnosed through 2002 (n = 170) were identified among participants by linkage to population-based cancer registries. Two controls were matched to each case (n = 340) on age, sex, and blood draw date. Prediagnostic IgG antibodies to JCV and BKV were measured using virus-like particle ELISA. Associations between JCV and BKV antibody seropositivity and NHL were estimated using conditional logistic regression. Overall, neither antibodies to JCV [odds ratio (OR), 0.83; 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 0.56-1.23] nor BKV (OR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.64-1.48) were associated with an increased risk of NHL. Results were similar after stratification by NHL subtype or induction period and adjustment for EBV seropositivity. Among those who donated blood in both 1974 and 1989, an increase in JCV antibody levels over time was associated with a 4-fold increased risk of NHL compared with a steep decline in antibody levels (OR, 4.59; 95% CI, 1.30-16.25; P(trend) = 0.02). Whereas JCV seropositivity was not associated with NHL overall, the finding of an increased risk of NHL associated with increasing antibody levels among those who were seropositive at baseline warrants further research into factors influencing reactivation of JCV infection.

Prediagnostic circulating polyomavirus antibody levels and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

BACKGROUND Three human polyomaviruses have been classified as probable (Merkel cell polyomavirus) or possible (BK and JC polyomaviruses) carcinogens, but few epidemiologic studies have examined associations between this growing class of viruses and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). METHODS Associations between polyomavirus antibodies and NHL incidence were examined using data from the Ameri...

Up to 2007, two human polyomaviruses BK (BKPyV) and JC (JCPyV) were known and named after the initials of the patients where they were first isolated. BKV was isolated from the urine of a kidney transplant patient affected by urethral stenosis [1]. JCV was identified in the brain tissue of a patient with Hodgkin lymphoma who developed a demyelinating disease known as progressive multifocal leuk...

Simian virus 40 (SV40) genome sequences have been detected in human non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) tissues, and past infection with SV40 may be a risk factor for NHL. We conducted a population-based nested case-control study to investigate the association between serum antibodies to SV40 and incident NHL. Two research serum banks were established in Washington County, MD, with >45,000 volunteers co...
