BACKGROUND: P16INK4a is a biomarker for transforming HPV infections that could act as
an adjunct to current cytological and histological assessment of cervical smears and …

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a risk factor for the development of benign and malignant
mucosal head and neck lesions. P16INK4A is often used as a surrogate marker for HPV …

With advances in immunohistochemical technology and growing knowledge of the
molecular genetics of tumors, immunohistochemistry is playing an increasingly important …

Abstract BACKGROUND HPV L1 capsid protein is expressed together with the production of
infectious viral particles, but its expression and relation to p16 expression, which has been a …

Objective Cervical microbial community in the cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical
cancer patients was analysed to study its composition, diversity and signalling pathways by …

Epidemiological and mechanistic evidence on the causative role of human papillomaviruses
(HPV) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is unclear. We retrieved alcohol …

Introduction A large group of interacting molecular factors, involved in
epithelialmesenchymal transition, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling, and …

Objective Our previous work revealed that host genes ZNF582, PTPRR, PAX1, and SOX1
are highly methylated in cervical intraepithelial neoplasias grade 3 or worse (CIN3+). In this …

To investigate the rates of residual, recurrent and invasive disease after cervical conization
in patients diagnosed with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grades 2/3. A …

Background Infection with high-risk type human papilloma viruses (HPVs) is associated with
cervical carcinomas and with a subset of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. Viral E6 …
