Recent trends have shown a dramatic rise in the incidence of oropharyngeal squamous cell
carcinoma strongly associated with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) of type 16. The …

Two independent pathways of vulvar carcinogenesis have currently been identified, one
related to infection with mucosal human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and a second related to …

The first consistent observations that viruses could be associated with some types of cancer
where made almost a century ago. Since then researchers have spent a great deal of effort …

We explored the cutaneotropic HPV genetic diversity in 71 subjects from Argentina. New
generic primers (CUT) targeting 88 mucosal/cutaneous HPV were designed and compared …

The main aim of the study is to describe the human papillomavirus (HPV) type-specific
distribution in invasive cervical cancer (ICC) specimens from Turkey. Paraffin-embedded …

Background. Human papillomavirus type 58 (HPV-58) accounts for a much higher
proportion of cervical cancers in East Asia than other types. A classification system of HPV …

Given high genetic diversity of papillomaviruses (PV) and complex scenario of virus-host
interaction, the genetic basis underlying the mechanisms of HPV carcinogenicity is not well …

The incidence of squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (HNSCC) is consistently
increasing, in association with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, especially HPV16 …

Penile carcinomas are frequently associated with high risk human papillomavirus (HPV)
types. Because little is known about the molecular biology of this association, we …

Papillomaviruses are a family of slowly evolving DNA viruses and their evolution is
commonly linked to that of their host species. However, whilst bovine papillomavirus-1 (BPV …
