Human papillomavirus & WHO type I nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
OBJECTIVES Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a rare cancer in the U.S. that has a well-established association with Epstein-Barr virus(EBV) for WHO types II/III but less so for WHO type I. Given the rise in oropharyngeal tumors positive for high risk human papillomavirus (HPV) and the unique biology of WHO type INPC, we chose to examine the relationship between HPV and WHO type I NPC. STUDY D...
متن کاملHigh-risk human papillomavirus in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Human papillomavirus (HPV), a cause of oropharyngeal carcinoma, has also been implicated as an etiologic agent in nasopharyngeal carcinomas. METHODS We performed p16 immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and HPV on 45 carcinomas of the nasopharynx. RESULTS Thirty-four (76%) carcinomas were EBV-positive/HPV-negative, 7 (16%) were EBV-negative/...

Background and Objectives: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women throughout the world. There are controversial reports on the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in breast carcinogenesis. The aim of this study was to assess the presence of HPV-DNA in invasive breast carcinoma to determine the association between HPV infection and breast carcinoma. Methods: The study inc...
متن کاملHuman papillomavirus and Epstein-Barr virus in nasopharyngeal carcinoma in a low-incidence population.
BACKGROUND The significance of human papillomavirus (HPV) in nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPCs) in a low-incidence population remains unknown. METHODS Samples from 90 patients with NPC (years, 1957-2012) were analyzed for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Clinical data, EBV, HPV, and p16 status were correlated with overall survival (OS; 63 cases; years, 1981-2012). RESULTS Of 9 HPV-positive cases, 3 ...
متن کاملPrevalence of human papillomavirus in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a meta-analysis
Background: The human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are causally associated with the tumorigenesis of several types of cancers. However, HPV prevalence in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has not previously been systematically reviewed. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to estimate the HPV prevalence in patients diagnosed with NPC and to assess the potential etiological significance...
