Integration of human papillomavirus 18 DNA in esophageal carcinoma 109 cells

Detection of Human Papillomavirus DNA by PCR in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma from Turkmen Sahra, North-East of Iran

Human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA has been identified in esophageal carcinomas. However, the incidence of HPV varies significantly in different geographical locations. In this study, neoplasms from Turkmen Sahra, a region in Golestan province in northeast part of Iran, with a high incidence of squamous cell carcinoma were analyzed for the presence of HPV DNA. Turkmen Sahra is located in the cancer...

Role of the Human Papillomavirus Infectio in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Background and Objective: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the possible etiologic factors  in development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In this study we aimed to study the  role of HPV in ESCC. Patients and Methods:In this study, 140 cases of ESCC were analyzed for the HPV DNA by  polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using GP5+/GP6+ primers for L1 open reading frame (ORF) to  am...

Absence of human papillomavirus-16 and -18 DNA and Epstein-Barr virus DNA in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

To elucidate the association of human papillomavirus (HPV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) with carcinogenesis of the esophagus, 41 surgically resected specimens and 12 cell lines of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were examined for the presence of HPV DNA and EBV DNA by polymerase chain reaction using primers for the E6 regions of HPV-16 and -18 and for the EBNA 1 region of EBV. We designed th...
