摘要

BK polyomavirus (BKV) is highly prevalent in the world population. Different reports indicate that BKV subtypes and subgroups present an uneven geographical distribution which might be correlated with human migration. However, there is a lack of data on the BKV subtype distribution in the South American population. The occurrence of BKV subtypes and subgroups detected in 51 kidney transplant recipients in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is described. According to genetic studies, the population in this region descends mainly from European or African immigrants, with a relatively low genetic background from the Amerindians. By sequencing the VP1 region of BKV, subgroups Ib1 and Ia of subtype I were found in 34 (67%) and 15 (29%), respectively, of samples, while subtype II was present in 2 (4%) of the samples. Subtypes III and IV were not detected. Phylogenetic analysis indicated similarities between Brazilian BKV subgroup Ia and East African lineages; and subgroup Ib-1 with Asian and North American lineages, while subtype II samples were similar to sequences from Japan and the UK. This is the first report that describes distribution of BKV subtypes in South America. The high prevalence of BKV subgroup Ia probably reflects the high proportion of African descendants in this population. On the other hand, the predominance of subgroup Ib-1 and the absence of Ib-2 in an area with a high proportion of European ancestry was unexpected. Further studies in South American populations are needed to provide a better understanding of the epidemiology of BKV in this region.
