应用实时荧光定量PCR技术，在635例鼻咽分泌物标本中检测到27例与默克尔细胞癌相关的默克尔细胞多瘤病毒（MCPyV）。MCPyV在成人中比在儿童中更常见。上呼吸道中的存在可能是人PyV的一般特性。
Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV), associated with Merkel cell carcinoma, was detected in 27 of 635 nasopharyngeal aspirate samples by real-time PCR. MCPyV was more commonly found in adults than in children. Presence in the upper respiratory tract may be a general property of human PyVs.
