Abstract
We sought to determine if the BK and JC polyomaviruses were associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). We did not detect the BK or JC polyomaviruses in lung tissue extracts from 33 patients with IPF by using real-time PCR, which suggests that an etiologic association is unlikely.Entities:
