Progression of human papillomavirus type 18-immortalized human keratinocytes to a malignant phenotype.
We have developed a model system for progression of human epithelial cells to malignancy, using a human papillomavirus type 18 (HPV-18)-immortalized human keratinocyte cell line. Cells of cell line FEP-1811 were nontumorigenic in athymic mice through at least 12 passages in culture, but after 32 passages were weakly tumorigenic, producing tumors that regressed. After 62 passages they produced i...
متن کاملSix1 promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and malignant conversion in human papillomavirus type 16-immortalized human keratinocytes.
Six1, a member of the Six family of homeodomain transcription factors, is overexpressed in various human cancers, and SIX1 overexpression is associated with tumor progression and metastasis. Six1 messenger RNA levels increase during in vitro progression of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16)-immortalized human keratinocytes (HKc/HPV16) toward a differentiation-resistant (HKc/DR) phenotype. In ...
متن کاملCharacterization of primary human keratinocytes transformed by human papillomavirus type 18.
Primary human epithelial cells were cotransfected with pHPV-18 and pSV2neo, and cell strains were generated by selecting in G418. One cell strain (FE-A), which exhibits an extended life span, is currently in its 30th passage. In comparison, control cultures can only be maintained up to the seventh passage. Southern blot analysis revealed the presence of at least one intact, integrated viral gen...
متن کاملAbsence of Human Papillomavirus in Benign and Malignant Breast Tissue
Background & Objective: Malignant breast tumors, which are one of the most important deadly cancers in women, like many other cancers, are proposed to be related to viruses etiologically. Proper management of breast carcinoma necessitates an identification of the etiological factors. Human Papillomavirus is considered to have an etiological role in breast carcinoma. We...
متن کاملMalignant human papillomavirus type 16-transformed human keratinocytes exhibit altered expression of extracellular matrix glycoproteins.
We found that keratinocytes immortalized with human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 DNA and malignantly converted by H-ras transfection (HPK-1A/ras) exhibit an enhanced ability to synthesize a fibronectin-containing extracellular matrix. Gene expression of fibronectin and thrombospondin was increased in tumorigenic keratinocytes compared to control and immortalized keratinocytes, 6- and 9-fold, re...
