Previous studies describe a correlation between HPV-positivity and non-smoking in TSCC; p16INK4A-expression as surrogate-marker for HPV-DNA/RNA-positivity is discussed controversial. Here, these parameters are assessed prospective, consecutive setting. HPV-status of sputum tonsillar swabs analyzed to determine their validity tissue-HPV-status.

Introduction: Condyloma acuminata that is also known as genital warts are one of the most common sexually transmitted caused by infection Human papillomavirus (HPV). Persistent Low Risk (LR) or High risk (HR) HPV a factor for progress into benign malignant cancer. The objective to analyze distribution genotype LR-HPV and HR-HPV at condyloma in anogenital region. Methods: A cross sectional study...

Background & Objective: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common non-melanoma skin cancer that may be caused by Human papillomavirus (HPV), especially in immunosuppressed patients. However, the role of the mucosal types of HPV in SCC patients with normal immunity has not been extensively confirmed. The aim of this study was to investigate the association...

ObjectivesHuman papillomaviruses (HPV) are the main etiology of invasive cervical cancer. Together HPV and viral hepatitis account for cause 25% cancers in developing countries. To evaluate association between population movements spread HPV, this study looked at prevalence, genotypes, phylogenetic assessment Great Khorasan, a pilgrimage-tourism province northeast Iran.MethodsFrom March 2013 to...

Background: Detection and quantification of human Papillomavirus (HPV) genome in oral carcinoma play an important role in diagnosis, as well as implications for progression of disease. Methods: We evaluated tissues from 50 esopharyngeal cancers collected from different regions of Iran for HPV E6 using the two type-specific primers sets. E6 gene of HPV genotypes was amplified by specific primers...

  Background and Objective: To estimate the risk of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection for cervical malignancies, we conducted a case-control study in southern Iran (Hormozgan province). Materials and Methods: For this purpose,52 paraffin embedded blocks with exact diagnosis of cervical carcinoma(50 carcinomas and 2 carcinomas in situ) from 2001 to 2006 and 52 praffin embedded blocks of ce...

Condyloma acuminatum, is a rare sexually transmitted disease. The virus responsible for condyloma is human papillomavirus. HPV-6 and HPV-11 are the most commonly detected HPV genotypes, but at least 20 other HPV genotypes have occasionally been found in genital wart tissue specimens. In fact genital HPV infection is common among sexually active populations. This disease may occur at any age af...

background there is evidence of a possible etiological role of human papillomaviruses (hpvs) in the development of colorectal cancer. loss of p53 tumor suppressor gene function has been found in many malignancies and it can occur in a variety of ways, including gene mutation and interaction with the e6 protein of oncogenic hpvs. the objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of hpv...
