ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to detect high risk human papillomavirus in cervical cancer with a pretreatment negative high risk human papillomavirus DNA genotype test and to evaluate clinicopathologic characteristics and survival outcomes according to high risk human papillomavirus status.MethodsWe investigated high risk human papillomavirus status in surgical specimens from 30 cases of cervical cancer using polymerase chain reaction. Polymerase chain reaction primers were set to detect the presence of the common L1 and E7 regions of human papillomavirus types 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58. We analyzed the following clinicopathologic parameters to evaluate their relationships with high risk human papillomavirus status: age, histology, stage, tumor size, invasion depth, lymphovascular invasion, and recurrent status.ResultsAmong 30 cases with a pretreatment negative DNA genotype test, high risk human papillomavirus was detected in 12 (40.0%), whereas 18 (60.0%) were negatives. Of 12 high risk human papillomavirus positive cases, 10 (33.3%) were positive for the L1 region, 6 (20.0%) of the 7 types were positive for the E7 region, and 4 (13.1%) were positive for both L1 and E7 regions. According to a multiple logistic regression model, tumor size (odds ratio 7.80; 95% confidence interval 1.476 to 41.216; P=0.0097) and stage (odds ratio 7.00; 95% confidence interval 1.293 to 37.910; P=0.0173) were associated with negative high risk human papillomavirus DNA status. Kaplan–Meier survival plots showed that negative high risk human papillomavirus status was associated with worse disease free survival in contrast with positive high risk human papillomavirus status (P=0.0392).ConclusionsNegative high risk human papillomavirus was found in 60% of cervical cancers with a pretreatment negative DNA genotype test. Moreover, the negative high risk human papillomavirus group was associated with worse survival outcome.

In developing countries, cervical cancer is the most common cause of cancer related to mortality in women. But the epidemiology of human papillomavirus (HPV) in different areas of Bangladesh is largely unknown both in risk groups and in the general population. The objective of the present study was to determine the risk factors associated with having HPV and the prevalence of high-risk HPV types among women with highrisk behaviour and to assess its potential impact on preventive strategies as the sex workers are at increased risk for sexually transmitted infections (STI), HPV and hence cervical cancer. Cervical swab from 293 sex workers in Dhaka City between August and September 2003 and between February 2005 and May 2006 were screened for HPV DNA using an HPV short fragment (E6) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based assay. HPV positive samples were genotyped with nested multiplex polymerase chain reaction (NMPCR) for the highrisk types. The overall HPV prevalence in sex workers was 75.8%, whereas for the high risk type it was 49.8%. Prevalence of single genotype and multiple types of HPV was 33.1 and 16.7% respectively. The most prevalent high-risk HPV types, in order of prevalence rate, were HPV16, HPV18, HPV58, HPV45, HPV31 and HPV33. Both HPV 16 and HPV 18 were present in 21% of the cases. Targeting HPV 16 and 18 with prophylactic vaccines could possibly have an important impact on the incidence of invasive cervical carcinoma in this group of women. Primary prevention and cervical cancer screening programmes should be optimized more and run yearly among the general population. It is proposed to screen sex workers when they enter prostitution regardless of their age.

Objective Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been identified as the principal etiologic agent for cervical cancer and its precursors. Different HPV types have been associated with different oncogenic potential. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between specific HPV type infection and expression pattern of the ras family oncogenes in different grades of HPV-associated human cervical neoplasia. Methods HPV typing was performed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 31 HPV-positive human cervical specimens from patients with squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL) or squamous cervical carcinoma (SCC). The mRNA expression levels of H-, K- and N-ras oncogenes were examined using the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS software. Results Among patients with SCC, H-, K- and N-ras expression levels were higher in HPV 16/18-associated cases compared to HPV 16/18-unassociated samples (p=0.003, p=0.004 and p=0.0001, respectively). The expression levels for H-, K-and N-ras were significantly higher in SCC patients with multiple HPV infection compared with SCC patients with single HPV infection (p=0.009, p=0.01 and p=0.021, respectively). Among patients with SIL, no statistically significant relationship was found between ras expression and HPV status. Conclusion Our findings indicate the possible role of ras signaling interaction with “high-risk” HPV 16/18 and multiple HPV infection in cervical cancer development.
