Expression of human papillomavirus type 16 E7 is sufficient to significantly increase expression of angiogenic factors but is not sufficient to induce endothelial cell migration.
Tumor suppressors negatively regulate angiogenesis, an essential step in tumor progression. Together, HPV 16 E6 and E7 proteins, which target p53 and pRb family members, respectively, for degradation, increase the expression of two angiogenic inducers, VEGF and IL-8, in primary foreskin keratinocytes (HFKs). Conditioned media from such cells are sufficient to alter endothelial cell behavior. He...
متن کاملThe E7 gene of human papillomavirus type 16 is sufficient for immortalization of human epithelial cells.
The contribution of the E6 and E7 open reading frames of human papillomavirus type 6b (HPV6b) and HPV16 to immortalization of human keratinocytes was evaluated by using amphotropic recombinant retroviruses. The HPV16 E7 gene could immortalize primary human keratinocytes without the cooperation of the viral E6 gene; however, E6 was able to contribute significantly to the efficiency of the E7 imm...
متن کاملDestabilization of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor by human papillomavirus type 16 E7 is not sufficient to overcome cell cycle arrest in human keratinocytes.
The E7 oncoprotein of human papillomavirus type 16 promotes cell proliferation in the presence of antiproliferative signals. Mutagenesis of E7 has revealed that this activity requires three regions, conserved regions 1 and 2 and a C-terminal zinc finger. Binding to the retinoblastoma tumor repressor (Rb) through an LxCxE motif in conserved region 2 is necessary, but not sufficient, for E7 to in...
متن کاملDeveloping Michigan Cancer Foundation 7 Cells with Stable Expression of E7 Gene of Human Papillomavirus Type 16
Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is responsible for the development of cervical neoplasia. Infection with human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) is a major risk factor for the development of cervical cancer. The virus encodes three oncoproteins (E5, E6 and E7), of which, the E7 oncoprotein is the major protein involved in cell immortalization and transformation o...
متن کاملPolicy Capacity Is Necessary but Not Sufficient; Comment on “Health Reform Requires Policy Capacity”
Policy capacity focuses on the managerial and organizational abilities to inform policy decisions with sound research and analysis, and facilitate policy implementation with operational efficiency. It stems from a view of the policy process that is rational and positivistic, in which optimal policy choices can be identified, selected, and implemented with objectivity. By itself, however, policy...
