Although metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript (MALAT)-1 is known to be consistently upregulated in several epithelial malignancies, little is known about its function or regulation. We therefore examined the relationship between MALAT-1 expression and candidate modulators such as DNA tumor virus oncoproteins human papillomavirus (HPV)-16 E6 and E7, BK virus T antigen (BKVTAg), m...

Cervical cancer is a high-incidence female cancer most commonly caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) infection of the genital mucosa. Immunotherapy targeting HPV-derived tumor antigens (TAs) has been widely studied in animal models and in patients. Because the female genital tract is a portal for the entry of HPV and a highly compartmentalized system, the development of topical vaginal immunot...

Werner-syndrome fibroblasts have a reduced in vitro life span before entering replicative senescence. Although this has been thought to be causal in the accelerated ageing of this disease, controversy remains as to whether Werner syndrome is showing the acceleration of a normal cellular ageing mechanism or the occurrence of a novel Werner-syndrome-specific process. Here, we analyse the signalli...

Persistent papillomas developed in ~10% of out-bred immune-competent SKH-1 mice following MusPV1 challenge of their tail, and in a similar fraction the papillomas were transient, suggesting potential as a model. However, papillomas only occurred in BALB/c or C57BL/6 mice depleted of T cells with anti-CD3 antibody, and they completely regressed within 8 weeks after depletion was stopped. Neither...

The finding of virus particles by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in fixed cervical and vaginal scrape material and their identification as papilloma viruses by negative staining is described. The colposcopic, cytological, and histological appearances in a group of 10 patients in whom virus particles were seen are discussed and the possibly considered of an association between papilloma ...

background: seborrheic keratoses (sk) are common, benign and often multiple skin tumors with disputed etiology. a follicular origin, late onset nevoid disturbance or local arrest in maturation of keratinocytes have been proposed. human papilloma virus (hpv) has been detected in a small number of cases, particularly those from the genital region. objectives: the aim of our study was to evaluate ...

background: human papillomavirus (hpv) and p53 alterations are speculated to play a role in carcinogenesis. this study was carried out to find out the association of hpv and p53 with precancerous lesions of the oral cavity such as leukoplakia: the objective of this study was to find the association among human papilloma virus (hpv) 16 infections and p53 polymorphism in tobacco using the oral le...

Laryngeal papillomas are benign epithelial tumors caused by human papillomaviruses. These tumors are characterized by hyperplasia of the spinous layer and abnormal differentiation. Many tumor cell lines over-express the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor on their surface, and EGF regulates normal cell growth. We have asked about the relationship of the EGF receptor and EGF response in laryn...
