Background and Objective: Genital warts, the most common sexually transmitted disease (STD), are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Few studies have been performed on Iranian women with genital warts or cervix cancer but there isno documented data about genital warts and HPV genotyping in Iranian men. In this study, we determined HPV genotypesin 108 male and females with anogenital warts in ...

Background: Some studies have reported a correlation between adnexal tumors and human papilloma virus (HPV) infection. We performed this study to determine the incidence of HPV infection in adnexal tumor samples to further clarify any potential link between HPV and the pathogenesis of adnexal tumors.Methods: A total of 65 formalin-fixed, paraff...

Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) cause superficial epidermal infections and are only cleared if they trigger an immunological response. We analysed SNPs that had previously been investigated for association with HPV infection to determine whether play a role in the serological response cutaneous beta-HPVs Australian population. Serum samples from 1,142 participants were seropositivity against L1 p...

Background: Different studies assessed the role of inflammation in malignancy of different organs. Prostatitis has been suggested as a cause of cancer and BPH. Till now, more than 100 types of human Papilloma virus (HPV) are recognized including low and high-risk groups for carcinogenesis. Among them HPV-16 and HPV-18 have shown further association with cancer. Regarding the pr...

Objective(s): Valproic acid (VPA) has proven to be as one of the most promising useful drug with anticancer properties.In this study, we investigate the VPA effects on E-cadherin expression in HeLa, TC1, MKN45, and HCT116 cell lines.  This study assesses the effects of VPA on human papillomavirus E7 expression in HPV positive cell lines. Materials and Methods: Cell lines were treated by2 mmol/...

introduction: the human papilloma virus (hpv) can play a role in the development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (scc). our aim was to assess the prevalence of hpv dna in scc of the larynx. the impact of hpv infection on patient survival was also evaluated.  materials and methods: this case-control study was performed in 44 patients with scc of the larynx (case group), while the contro...

The prognostic impact of human papillomavirus (HPV) in oropharyngeal cancer is generally acknowledged, and HPV-status assessed routinely clinical practice. Paradoxically, while the oral cavity seems predilection site for productive HPV-infections, figures on HPV-attribution squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC) differ widely, uncertain. Major obstacles are lack reproducible assays to detect HPV nonor...
