Reasoning linking JC virus, latency, detection, and pathogenesis in brain

This chain explains how JC virus, as a Polyomaviridae family member, is detectable in human brains (even in the absence of immunosuppression), establishes latency in neural tissue, and is causally implicated in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). It links viral taxonomy, empirical detection in brain tissue, evidence of latency, and induction of brain disease.
