human papilloma virus causes benign and malignant abnormalities in different part of the body. the link between high risk types of hpv and some anogenital and aerodigestive tract cancer is well established. oral hpv infection plays a role in developing oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. we studied the prevalence of oral hpv in healthy individuals and its relative risk factors.saliva samples...

BACKGROUND The Uygur women have the highest incidence of cervical cancer in all Chinese ethnic groups. The research was conducted to explore whether DNA ploidy could be the prognostic indicator of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in Xinjiang Uygur women. METHODS Case data and cervical exfoliated cell samples from 326 Uygur women. The DNA ploidy was analyzed by flow cytometry. The flow-thr...

OBJECTIVE To determine the absolute risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 3 or cervical cancer (CIN 3 or worse) after detection of low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) and after a negative high-risk HPV test. METHODS In this prospective cohort study, consecutive liquid-based cervical cytology samples were collected from women screened for cervical cancer in Copenhagen, Denmark...

Our aims were to evaluate the clinical performance of human telomerase RNA gene component (hTERC gene) amplification assay with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) DNA test of Hybrid Capture 2 DNA test (HC2), for the detection of high grade cervical precancerous lesions and cancer (CIN 2+). In addition, the association shown between hTERC gene amplification and HPV DNA test positive in wome...

Primary human papillomavirus (HPV)-based cervical screening will be introduced in the Netherlands in 2016. We assessed the 5-year cervical (pre)cancer risk of women with different combinations of HPV and cytology test results. Special attention was paid to risks for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 and 2 or more (CIN3+/2+) of HPV-positive women with a negative triage test, because thi...

  Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in the world among women and human papilloma virus (HPV) plays a major role in its development. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of HPV type 16 and 18 in cervical discharge by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method in women with atypical biopsy or papsmear. Method: This case- control study was performed on wome...

Objectives. Consensus guidelines establish that HPV testing should not be used to manage adolescents with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US). This study aimed to estimate the impact on follow-up of HPV testing after the first-time ASC-US diagnosis. Methods. From January 2009 to December 2010, all ASC-US diagnoses in adolescents were retrieved. Results. 1950 cervical c...

OBJECTIVE This study was performed to analyze the associations between cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition, using cervical samples from previous studies in Tanzania and Uganda. METHODS A total of 161 adult women who acquired HIV infection during follow-up and 464 individually matched HIV-seronegative controls were selected from 5 co...

Objective(s): Valproic acid (VPA) has proven to be as one of the most promising useful drug with anticancer properties.In this study, we investigate the VPA effects on E-cadherin expression in HeLa, TC1, MKN45, and HCT116 cell lines.  This study assesses the effects of VPA on human papillomavirus E7 expression in HPV positive cell lines. Materials and Methods: Cell lines were treated by2 mmol/...
