Serostability for BK and JC human polyomavirus (PyV) seropositivitya in samples collected longitudinally over time among 210b controls from the Skin Cancer Prevention Study.

PyV Controls Serostability (n=210), No. (%)

Stably seropositive Stably seronegative Seroconversion Seroreversion Fluctuating
BK 201 (95.7) 6 (2.9) 2 (0.9) None 1 (0.5)
JC 157 (74.8) 44 (20.9) 6 (2.9) 2 (0.9) 1 (0.5)

PyV infection was determined using seropositivity for the VP1 protein.

b

Not including 19 controls who only had a single sample collected. Only controls with ≥2 repeated serum samples were included.
