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.

چکیده
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. Here, the individual contribution of E6 and E7 to angiogenesis was investigated. E7 and, to a lesser extent E6, increased expression of VEGF and IL-8. Nevertheless, neither conditioned media from HPV 16 E6 nor E7-expressing HFKs were sufficient to induce migration of endothelial cells. Conditioned media from HFKs expressing the HPV 16 E6 and the E7 mutant E7C24G, which can target p107 and p130 but not pRb for degradation, contained increased levels of VEGF and IL-8. The results suggest that the mechanism of HPV 16 E7-mediated increased levels of VEGF is pRb-independent.

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...
