ObjectivesHuman papillomaviruses (HPV) are the main etiology of invasive cervical cancer. Together HPV and viral hepatitis account for cause 25% cancers in developing countries. To evaluate association between population movements spread HPV, this study looked at prevalence, genotypes, phylogenetic assessment Great Khorasan, a pilgrimage-tourism province northeast Iran.MethodsFrom March 2013 to...

OBJECTIVE Infection with high-risk genotypes of human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) is the major cause of invasive cervical cancers. HPV-16 and HPV-18 are known to be responsible for two-thirds of all invasive cervical carcinomas, followed by HPV-45, -31, and -33. Current guidelines only differentiate HPV-16/18 (+) by recommending direct colposcopy for treatment. We tried to evaluate whether there ar...

HPV is the major causative agent for cervical cancer. Study on the risk of cervical cancer associated with different hr-HPV genotypes would be useful for disease management and new vaccine strategy. With limited reports available, the present study aimed to investigate the pattern of HPV genotypes coinfections and risk of cervical carcinoma associated with them in Indian population. 15 HPV geno...

BACKGROUND External acuminata condylomata (EAC) are among the most common sexually transmitted diseases. Although it is understood that low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes 6 and 11 are associated with EAC, there have only been a few, small, published studies reporting the genotype-specific prevalence of HPV. The objective of our study was to assess the prevalence of HPV genotypes for ...

DNA from two novel HPV genotypes, HPV-150 and HPV-151, isolated from hair follicles of immuno-competent individuals, was fully cloned, sequenced and characterized. The complete genomes of HPV-150 and HPV-151 are 7,436-bp and 7,386-bp in length, respectively. Both contain genes for at least six proteins, namely E6, E7, E1, E2, L2, L1, as well as a non-coding upstream regulatory region located be...

OBJECTIVES High-risk human papillomaviruses (hrHPVs) are highly prevalent worldwide, and HPV genotypes differ between geographical regions; however, sexually transmitted HPV may lead to cervical carcinogenesis. The objective of this cross-sectional study was to estimate the prevalence characteristics of cervical HPV genotypes in Taizhou, Southeast China. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A population-...

condyloma acuminatum, is a rare sexually transmitted disease. the virus responsible for condyloma is human papillomavirus. hpv-6 and hpv-11 are the most commonly detected hpv genotypes, but at least 20 other hpv genotypes have occasionally been found in genital wart tissue specimens. in fact genital hpv infection is common among sexually active populations. this disease may occur at any age aft...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is classified into high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) and (LR-HPV) according to their oncogenic potential. These viruses can be found in the cervix, vagina, vulva, anus ENT sphere. infections lead benign or malignant tumors which we could find both LR-HPV HR-HPV genotypes. The objective of this study was investigate genotypes archived tissue samples derived from ear, nose, throat...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to analyze the distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes in cytologically abnormal cervical samples from 106 women living in a region of the north of Spain. METHODS Cytological classification was reported according to the 2001 Bethesda System and HPV genotyping was performed by Roche Linear Array. RESULTS The overall HPV prevalence was 69.8%...

AIM To investigate the pre-vaccination epidemiology of genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infections and genotypes in women with abnormal cytology in Nagasaki, Japan. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed Pap smear tests, biopsies and HPV genotype testing in Nagasaki Prefecture from August 2007 through November 2009. RESULTS During the study period, serial samples of uterine cervical specimens ...
