The Impact

Chapter 6 reviews briefly the role of infections as causal agents in cancer, describes anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) immunization as the first cancer vaccine paradigm, and finally focuses on the latest paradigm of prophylactic vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV) infection as the new front in cancer prevention.

The incidence of oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) is increasing remarkably among all head and neck cancers, mainly due to its association with the human papillomavirus (HPV). Most HPVs are eliminated by the host’s immune system; however, because HPV has developed an effective immune evasion mechanism to complete its replication cycle, a small number of HPVs are not eliminated, leading to persistent infection. Moreover, during the oncogenic process, the extrachromosomal HPV genome often becomes integrated into the host genome. Integration involves the induction and high expression of E6 and E7, leading to cell cycle activation and increased genomic instability in the host. Therefore, integration is an important event in oncogenesis, although the associated mechanism remains unclear, especially in HPV-OPC. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on HPV-mediated carcinogenesis, with special emphasis on immune evasion and integration mechanisms, which are crucial for oncogenesis.

Negative Regulatory Element

ABSTRACT The papillomavirus life cycle is tightly linked to epithelial cell differentiation. Production of virus capsid proteins is restricted to the most terminally differentiated keratinocytes in the upper layers of the epithelium. However, mRNAs encoding the capsid proteins can be detected in less-differentiated cells, suggesting that late gene expression is controlled posttranscriptionally. Short sequence elements (less than 80 nucleotides in length) that inhibit gene expression in undifferentiated epithelial cells have been identified in the late 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs) of several papillomaviruses, including the high-risk mucosal type human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16). Here we show that closely related high-risk mucosal type HPV-31 also contains elements that can act to repress gene expression in undifferentiated epithelial cells. However, the HPV-31 negative regulatory element is surprisingly complex, comprising a major inhibitory element of approximately 130 nucleotides upstream of the late polyadenylation site and a minor element of approximately 110 nucleotides mapping downstream. The first 60 nucleotides of the major element have 68% identity to the negative regulatory element of HPV-16, and these elements bind the same cellular proteins, CstF-64, U2AF65, and HuR. The minor inhibitory element binds some cellular proteins in common with the major inhibitory element, though it also binds certain proteins that do not bind the upstream element.
