Laser capture microdissection and PCR for analysis of human papilloma virus infection.

چکیده
Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is considered one of the main factors involved in the pathogenesis of endocervical adenocarcinoma. However, the cellular location of HPV in this type of tumor is controversial. We have developed a method to determine the presence of HPV type 16 in endocervical cancer cells using laser capture microdissection followed by DNA extraction and qualitative polymerase chain reaction. Our results show that HPV type 16 is present in endocervical adenocarcinoma cells.

متن کاملCorrelation between histopathological criteria of Human Papilloma Virus infection and the presence of HPV in paraffin-embedded cervical biopsies based on PCR assay
Introduction: This study was carried out to correlate histological findings in cervical lesions to human papilloma virus (HPV), as detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Methods: In this descriptive study, out of 143 cervical biopsies, 50 biopsies, containing sufficient histopathologic criteria, were examined. PCR assay was performed with the primers GP05/06+ and, as control, the beta-glo...

Background and Objective: To estimate the risk of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection for cervical malignancies, we conducted a case-control study in southern Iran (Hormozgan province). Materials and Methods: For this purpose,52 paraffin embedded blocks with exact diagnosis of cervical carcinoma(50 carcinomas and 2 carcinomas in situ) from 2001 to 2006 and 52 praffin embedded blocks of ce...
متن کاملReal-time polymerase chain reaction and laser capture microdissection for the diagnosis of BK virus infection in renal allografts.
We used real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology to detect BK virus (BKV) in H and E-stained kidney biopsy sections, using laser capture microdissection. Renal allograft biopsy specimens from 4 patients with the histopathologic diagnosis of BKV-associated nephropathy (BKVAN; group 1) and 3 patients suspected to have BKVAN but without diagnostic histologic features (group 2) were ret...
