This study investigated the subtype distribution of the human papillomavirus (HPV) in the patients with condyloma accuminatum (CA) in Shenzhen city, China, and assessed the relationship between different HPV subtypes and cervical neoplasia. Type-specific prevalence and extent of multiple infections were assessed in the genital tract. CA samples collected from the 352 patients in the departments of dermatology and gynecology from the People's Hospital in Shenzhen during 2004–2006, using MY09/11 PCR and reverse dot blot hybridization for genotyping of 9–20 kinds of HPV subtypes. HPV status was studied in relation to the pathologic findings. HPV type diversity was wide. The low-risk HPV subtype 11 and 6 were the main subtypes, and multiple HPV infection rate was about 37% in HPV-positive samples. High-risk HPV (HR-HPV) types (16, 18, 58, 52, and 33) were the main subtypes in the CA of cervix, especially in the advanced stage cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia II+or above), multiple HR-HPV infection was found in 87% of HPV-positive samples. We conclude that HPV type 6 and 11 were the main subtypes in patients with CA in Shenzhen region, while HPV type 16 and 18 may be one of the main reasons for malignant changes of cervix, but this study cannot prove the association between multiple HPV infection and severity of cervix lesions.

There are more supports for the view that human papillomavirus (HPV) infection might be an etiological factor in the development of cervical cancer when the association of persistent condylomata is considered. Biopsies from 318 cases with squamous cell carcinoma of uterine cervix, 48 with cervical and vulvar condylomata, 14 with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), 34 with chronic cervicitis and 24 normal cervical epithelium were collected from 5 geographic regions of China with different cervical cancer mortalities. All specimens were prepared for Dot blot, Southern blot and in situ DNA-DNA hybridizations by using HPV-11, 16, 18 DNA labelled with 32P and 3H as probes to detect viral homologous sequences in samples. Among them, 32 cases with cervical cancer, 27 with condyloma and 10 normal cervical epitheliums were randomly chosen for comparative EM observation. The results showed that: 1), 192 out of 318 (60.4%) cases of cervical cancer were positive for HPV-16 DNA probe (Table I)

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is thought to be strongly associated with the precarcinomatous state cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical carcinoma. To accurately assess the correlation between HPV detection profiles and CIN, the uniplex E6/E7 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was used. We detected HPV (37 genotypes) in 267 CIN cases. The detection of a single high-risk HPV genotype occurred in 69.7% of CIN1 and worse than CIN1 (CIN1+) cases whereas other types were detected in 11.6% of cases. Codetection of high-risk HPV genotypes occurred in 4.9% of CIN1+ cases. The high-risk genotype HPV16 was the most frequently detected genotype in CIN1+ lesions; the genotype HPV34 (not a high-risk type) was detected in some CIN3 cases. Furthermore, HPV codetection may not be associated with CIN grades. These results suggest that various HPV genotypes are associated with CIN across all analyzed cases.

Aims and backround Interferons (IFN) have offered considerable advances in the therapy of genital warts even those associated with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN); intralesional therapy either alone or in combination with other modalities such as cryosurgery and laser surgery provides improved clearing and cure of these often recalcitrant lesions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of intralesional IFN therapy in patients with CIN associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Methods Beta-IFN was injected intra-perilesionally into the cervix in 41 patients with CIN associated with HPV infection. Results The regimen of 3 million international units (IU) injected intralesionally daily in the 1st week and 3 times a week in the 2nd and 3rd weeks for a total of 11 injections and a total dosage of 33 million IU yielded an 80 percent cure rate and may be more advantageous than other treatment options in certain instances. Cytocolposcopic and histologic examination was carried out before and after treatment and 24 lesions were also analyzed for type-specific papillomaviruses using in situ DNA hybridization. CIN disappeared in 33 patients 6 months after the end of therapy. Side effects of intralesional IFN therapy are dose related and for the most part readily tolerated. Conclusions Intralesional IFN proved to be effective treatment for CIN associated with HPV infection (cure rate: 80%) and well accepted because hospitalization is not required and no important side effects occur.

BackgroundTo better understand the pathogenesis of cervical cancer (CC), we systematically analysed the genomic variation and human papillomavirus (HPV) integration profiles of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and CC.MethodsWe performed whole-genome sequencing or whole-exome sequencing of 102 tumour-normal pairs and human papillomavirus probe capture sequencing of 45 CCs, 44 CIN samples and 25 normal cervical samples, and constructed strict integrated workflow of genomic analysis.ResultsMutational analysis identified eight significantly mutated genes in CC including four genes (FAT1, MLL3, MLL2 and FADD), which have not previously been reported in CC. Targetable alterations were identified in 55.9% of patients. In addition, HPV integration breakpoints occurred in 97.8% of the CC samples, 70.5% of the CIN samples and 42.8% of the normal cervical samples with HPV infection. Integrations of high-risk HPV strains in CCs, including HPV16, 18, 33 and 58, also occurred in the CIN samples. Moreover, gene mutations were detected in 52% of the CIN specimens, and 54.8% of these mutations occurred in genes that also mutated in CCs.ConclusionOur results lay the foundation for a deep understanding of the molecular mechanisms and finding new diagnostic and therapeutic targets of CC.

The objective of the study was to investigate the expression of p53 and p16INK4a in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and their relation with disease severity and high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) status. A series of 125 women with previous positive Pap smear were selected for this cross-sectional study. All patients underwent gynecological examination, including colposcopy. Specimens for Pap smears, Hybrid Capture 2 (HC2) test, and pathologic analysis were obtained. After evaluation of CIN grade, immunohistochemical detection of proteins p53 and p16INK4a was performed on paraffin-embedded sections. The extent of immunoexpression of both proteins was analyzed in relation to CIN grade and HR-HPV status. CIN was graded as 1 in 21, 2 in 17, and 3 in 87 specimens. p16INK4a positivity (at least 5% of epithelial cells stained) was found in 99 of 125 cases (79.2%) and was significantly higher in high-grade lesions as compared to low-grade CIN (P< 0.001). The expression of p53 did not differ across histologic strata. Protein expression neither of p16INK4a nor of p53 correlated with HR-HPV status. Expression of p16INK4a was not related with that of p53. Our study gives further support to previous findings of strong association of p16INK4a immunostaining with severity of epithelial atypia, but this protein may not be considered a predictor of HR-HPV status determined with HC2. By contrast, immunoexpression of p53 was related neither to CIN grade nor to HR-HPV status.

ABSTRACT The genome of a novel human papillomavirus (HPV-82) was cloned from a vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia grade I. In our series of 291 biopsy specimens, HPV-82 was identified in one case each of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade II and grade III by blot hybridization. The histological localization of HPV-82 DNA in the three lesions was confirmed by in situ hybridization. The results indicated that HPV-82 is an etiologic agent for vaginal and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. By nucleotide sequence similarity of L1 open reading frame (ORF), HPV-82 was closely related to HPV-26, -51, and -69. To know the precise relationship between the HPVs, we determined the complete sequence of HPV-82, as well as that of HPV-69. Sequencing revealed that the four HPVs had no initiation codon in the E5 ORF and had extensive nucleotide sequence similarities in all ORFs. In addition, they exhibited unique frame position patterns for ORFs, different from those of the other genital HPVs.

Abstract Background Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a primary cause of cervical cancer. Although epidemiologic study revealed that carcinogenic risk differs according to HPV genotypes, the expression patterns of HPV-derived transcripts and their dependence on HPV genotypes have not yet been fully elucidated. Methods In this study, 382 patients with abnormal cervical cytology were enrolled to assess the associations between HPV-derived transcripts and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grades and/or HPV genotypes. Specifically, four HPV-derived transcripts, namely, oncogenes E6 and E6* , E1^E4 , and viral capsid protein L1 in four major HPV genotypes—HPV 16, 18, 52, and 58—were investigated. Results The detection rate of E6/E6* increased with CIN progression, whereas there was no significant change in the detection rate of E1^E4 or L1 among CIN grades. In addition, we found that L1 gene expression was HPV type-dependent. Almost all HPV 52-positive specimens, approximately 50% of HPV 58-positive specimens, around 33% of HPV 16-positive specimens, and only one HPV18-positive specimen expressed L1 . Conclusions We demonstrated that HPV-derived transcripts are HPV genotype-dependent. Especially, expression patterns of L1 gene expression might reflect HPV genotype-dependent patterns of carcinogenesis.

PURPOSE Cervical cancer (CC) is the most common cancer affecting women worldwide. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a major contributing factor for the development of CC. The development of CC occurs progressively from precancer stages to cancerous stages (ie, invasive squamous cell carcinoma [ISCC] and adenocarcinoma [ADC]). ADC is a rare form of CC that develops from the mucinous endocervical epithelium. It is believed that the downstream targets of Notch signaling contribute to the etiology of CC. One such target is HES1, whose role in the modulation of ADC is unknown. The purpose of this study is to determine the role of HES1 protein in HPV-associated ADC subtype of CC and also to compare its expression in histologic subtypes of precancer and ISCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 148 patients (30 with precancers, 98 with ISCC, and 20 with ADC) and 40 normal control participants were analyzed for the expression of HES1 via immunohistochemistry, with results validated by immunoblotting. RESULTS The comparison between HPV-16 and HES1 expression was significant in precancer (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades 1 to 3; P = .013), ISCC (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages I to IV; P = .001), and ADC ( P = .007). An overall significant mean difference was observed between HES1, JAG1, and Notch-3 proteins in precancer ( P = .001), ISCC ( P = .001), and ADC ( P = .001). Pairwise comparisons between HES1 and JAG1 and HES1 and Notch-3 were also found to be significant. CONCLUSION This study showed that among all HPV-16–positive precancers, the major HES1 positivity signal arises from cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades 2 and 3 that develops into ISCC. Moreover, HPV-16–positive ADC also showed an association with HES1. The HES1, JAG1, and Notch-3 proteins showed their synergistic role in modulating HPV associated ADC along with histologic subtypes of precancer and ISCC of CC.

Background: The pathogenesis of penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PeIN) is unclear but human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and polymorphisms in human leucocyte antigen (HLA). Objectives: To examine the prevalence of HPV DNA and HLA in PeIN. Methods: Adult Caucasian men with a clinical and histological diagnosis of PeIN, that is, Bowenoid papulosis (BP), Bowen’s disease of penis (BDP) and erythroplasia of Queyrat (EQ) were selected and phenotyped from the clinical records. DNA was extracted from blood and paraffin-embedded sections for HLA and HPV typing, respectively. Human leucocyte antigen allele frequencies were compared with those derived from the UK–based Caucasian population. Results: Seventy-two cases of PeIN (20 BP, 34 BDP and 18 EQ) were studied. Human papillomavirus DNA was identified in 65/72 (90.2%) PeIN; Alphapapillomavirus types were detected in 62/72 (85%) followed by Betapapillomavirus types in 9/72 (12.5%) and cutaneous types in 7/72 (9.7%); HPV16 was the most prevalent genotype at 35/72 (48.6%) followed by HPV33 at 7/72 (9.7%); multiple infections were seen in 18/72 (25%) PeIN. HLA-C*15 (Bonferroni corrected p = 0.049) confers susceptibility to PeIN, whereas HLA-DQA1*01 (corrected p = 0.02) protects against PeIN. HPV16-associated PeIN cases showed no statistically significant association with HLA genotype after multiple corrections. Conclusion: Human papillomavirus is involved in the pathogenesis of PeIN. Immunogenotype may play a role in the pathogenesis of PeIN.
