Absztrakt A humán papillomavírus (HPV) etiológiai szerepe számos laphámeredetű malignomában ismert. A colon laphámsejtes rákja (SCC) ritka betegség, etiológiája bizonytalan. Egy általunk operált SCC-eset kapcsán célunk volt kimutatni egy esetleges HPV-fertőzést. Egy 94 éves nőbeteget operáltunk passage-zavart okozó colon descendens tumor miatt. A szövettani vizsgálat SCC-t igazolt. Korábban kidolgozott módszerrel PCR- és Southern blot hybridisatiós technikával vizsgáltuk meg a daganatszövetet és az eltávolított nyirokcsomókat. Az eset kapcsán átnéztük az SCC-re vonatkozó irodalmat. A malignomákban leggyakrabban előforduló HPV-típusok (16, 18) közül a HPV-16 jelenlétét tudtuk igazolni a SCC-ben és a környező 9 nyirokcsomóból 4-ben. Ezek közül 2 metastaticus volt. Egy SCC-s betegnél sikerült HPV-16-fertőzöttséget kimutatni, a primer tumorból és a metastaticus nyirokcsomók mellett további környező nyirokcsomókból. Ilyen tanulmányt tudomásunk szerint még senki nem közölt.

Recently, there has been a steady growth of cervical cancer all over the world, especially in Russia. Patients with cervical cancer have become much younger. At the same time, the human papillomavirus is not only the main factor in the neoplastic process, but it is also one of the most common sexually transmitted infections in the world. The aim of the paper is to assess the prevalence and characteristics of human papillomavirus genotypes in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. Materials and Methods. During the periodic screening we examined 213 women of a reproductive age with HPV infection. All patients underwent liquid-based cytology and human papillomavirus genotyping by polymerase chain reaction. Results. We revealed that the prevalence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia among women with papillomavirus infection was 80.3 % (n=171). According to human papillomavirus genotyping, HPV 16 (38 %) and HPV 33 (32 %) prevailed. We also observed positive high correlation between high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and HPV 18 (r=+0.759, p=0.001), a negative mean correlation between HPV 45 and low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) (r=-0.643, p=0.002). A cohort of patients with severe intraepithelial cervical lesions demonstrated high viral load rates. Conclusion. According to the results obtained, we established the dominance of HPV 16 and HPV 33 genotypes in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. There were significant differences between HSIL and LSIL patients with HPV 18 and HPV 45. There was also a correlation between an increase in the viral load with the severity of the pathological process. Keywords: human papillomavirus, intraepithelial cervical neoplasms, cervical cancer. В последние годы в мире, особенно в России, наблюдается неуклонный рост и «омолаживание» рака шейки матки. При этом вирус папилломы человека является не только основным фактором прогрессирования неопластического процесса, но и одной из наиболее распространенных инфекций, предаваемых половым путем, в мире. Цель. Оценить распространенность и характеристику генотипов папилломавирусной инфекции у пациенток с цервикальными интраэпителиальными неоплазиями. Материалы и методы. Проведено обследование 213 пациенток репродуктивного возраста с ВПЧ-инфекцией, пришедших на профилактический осмотр. Всем женщинам было выполнено цитологическое исследование жидкостным методом и генотипирование вируса папилломы человека методом полимеразной цепной реакции. Результаты. Распространенность цервикальных интраэпителиальных неоплазий среди женщин с папилломавирусной инфекцией составила 80,3 % (171 пациентка). Согласно данным генотипирования вируса папилломы человека превалировал 16-й (38 %) и 33-й типы (32 %). Выявлена положительная высокая корреляционная связь между цервикальными неоплазиями высокой степени онкогенного риска (HSIL) и 18-м типом ВПЧ-инфекции (r=+0,759 при р=0,001), отрицательная средняя корреляционная связь 45-го типа ВПЧ с низкой степенью онкогенного риска (LSIL) (r=-0,643 при р=0,002). Продемонстрированы высокие показатели вирусной нагрузки в когорте пациенток с тяжелыми внутриэпителиальными цервикальными поражениями. Выводы. По результатам полученных данных установлено доминирование 16-го и 33-го генотипов ВПЧ при цервикальных интраэпителиальных неоплазиях с наличием значимых различий между пациентами с HSIL и LSIL в отношении 18-го и 45-го типов, а также связь роста уровня вирусной нагрузки с увеличением степени тяжести патологического процесса. Ключевые слова: вирус папилломы человека, интраэпителиальные новообразования шейки матки, рак шейки матки.

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.

ABSTRACT Our results presented here demonstrate that the most abundant human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) mRNAs expressing the viral oncogenes E6 and E7 are regulated by cellular ASF/SF2, itself defined as a proto-oncogene and overexpressed in cervical cancer cells. We show that the most frequently used 3′-splice site on the HPV-16 genome, site SA3358, which is used to produce primarily E4, E6, and E7 mRNAs, is regulated by ASF/SF2. Splice site SA3358 is immediately followed by 15 potential binding sites for the splicing factor ASF/SF2. Recombinant ASF/SF2 binds to the cluster of ASF/SF2 sites. Mutational inactivation of all 15 sites abolished splicing to SA3358 and redirected splicing to the downstream-located, late 3′-splice site SA5639. Overexpression of a mutant ASF/SF2 protein that lacks the RS domain, also totally inhibited the usage of SA3358 and redirected splicing to the late 3′-splice site SA5639. The 15 ASF/SF2 binding sites could be replaced by an ASF/SF2-dependent, HIV-1-derived splicing enhancer named GAR. This enhancer was also inhibited by the mutant ASF/SF2 protein that lacks the RS domain. Finally, silencer RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown of ASF/SF2 caused a reduction in spliced HPV-16 mRNA levels. Taken together, our results demonstrate that the major HPV-16 3′-splice site SA3358 is dependent on ASF/SF2. SA3358 is used by the most abundantly expressed HPV-16 mRNAs, including those encoding E6 and E7. High levels of ASF/SF2 may therefore be a requirement for progression to cervical cancer. This is supported by our earlier findings that ASF/SF2 is overexpressed in high-grade cervical lesions and cervical cancer.

ObjectiveDue to long lag time between infection/cancer diagnoses human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination programs will deliver vaccine efficacy (VE) estimates against cancer end-points late. Cancer registry follow-up of population-based, randomised trial cohorts of vaccinated and unvaccinated women was undertaken for the estimation of VE against cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade three and invasive cancer (CIN3+).MethodsWe report interim results with 98 561 person years of Finnish Cancer Registry -based follow-up of individually and/or cluster randomised cohorts of HPV-16/18 vaccinated and unvaccinated adolescent women enrolled in June 2003/2005, and between May 2004 and April 2005, respectively. The cohorts comprised 15 627 18- to 19-year-old unvaccinated women (NCT01393470), and 2 401 and 64 16- to 17-year-old HPV-16/18 vaccinated women participating the PATRICIA (NCT00122681) and HPV-012 (NCT00169494) trials, respectively. The age-aligned passive follow-up started 6 months after the clinical trials’ end.ResultsDuring the follow-up of 4.5 to 10 years post enrolment we identified 75 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3) and 4 cases of invasive cervical cancer (ICC) in the unvaccinated cohort, and 4 CIN3 cases in the HPV-16/18 vaccinated women. Diagnostic blocks were available for HPV typing from 87% of the cases. CIN3+ lesions were detectable in 54 cases. HPV16 was found in 26 of 50 unvaccinated CIN3+ cases, and in 3 CIN3+ cases in the HPV-16/18 vaccinated women. The latter were all baseline positive for cervical HPV16 DNA. Baseline data was not available for the unvaccinated women. Intention-to-treat VE against any CIN3+ was 66% (95% CI 8, 88).ConclusionsTen years post vaccination the AS04-adjuvanted HPV-16/18 vaccine shows continued efficacy against CIN3+ irrespectively of HPV type. Vaccine efficacy was not observed in baseline HPV16 DNA positive subjects.Trial registration numberNCT01393470.
