ABSTRACT Using pseudoinfection of cell lines, we demonstrate that cell surface heparan sulfate is required for infection by human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) and HPV-33 pseudovirions. Pseudoinfection was inhibited by heparin but not dermatan or chondroitin sulfate, reduced by reducing the level of surface sulfation, and abolished by heparinase treatment. Carboxy-terminally deleted HPV-33 virus-like particles still bound efficiently to heparin. The kinetics of postattachment neutralization by antiserum or heparin indicated that pseudovirions were shifted on the cell surface from a heparin-sensitive into a heparin-resistant mode of binding, possibly involving a secondary receptor. Alpha-6 integrin is not a receptor for HPV-33 pseudoinfection.

ABSTRACT Papillomavirus infection normally involves virion binding to cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs). However, we found that human papillomavirus type 16 pseudovirions efficiently bound and infected cells lacking HSPGs if their L2 capsid protein was precleaved by furin, a cellular protease required for infection. The inability of pseudovirions to efficiently bind and infect cultured primary keratinocytes was also overcome by furin precleavage, suggesting that the defect involves altered HSPG modification. We conclude that the primary function of HSPG binding is to enable cell surface furin cleavage of L2 and that binding to a distinct cell surface receptor(s) is a subsequent step of papillomavirus infection.

Under our supervision there were 66 women with a diagnosis of "dysplasia of cervical epithelium mild" on the background of persistent human papillomavirus infection (PVI). With the aim of improving the treatment of dysplasia of the 1st degree in rehabilitation activities after cryoablation there were applied drugs Distreptaza and inducer of interferon. The results of treatment were evaluated after 3 months. For patients of the 1st group (18 women) who underwent only cryoablation, the efficacy of therapy was 77.8%. In the 2nd group (22 women) after cryoablation was used inducer of interferon, the effectiveness made up of 90.9%. The maximum effect of treatment - 100% recorded in 3rd group (26 patients), where after cryoablation was carried out treatment with Distreptaza and inducer of interferon. The results of treatment obtained in this group allow to recommend the complex therapy of PVI in conditions of female consultation. Key words: dysplasia, HPV, cryosurgery, Distreptaza, inducer of interferon.
