To date, more than 400 types of human papillomavirus (HPV) have been identified. Despite
the creation of effective prophylactic vaccines against the most common genital HPVs, the …

Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) represent a diverse group of DNA viruses that infect
epithelial cells of mucosal and cutaneous tissues, leading to a wide spectrum of clinical …

The high-risk α-type papillomaviruses have a C-terminal PDZ-binding motif (PBM) on one of
the two major oncoproteins E6 or E7; the vast majority on E6. The PBM is essential for the …

In recent years, next generation sequencing (NGS) technology has been widely used for the
discovery of novel human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes, variant characterization and …

Background: Cervical cancer (CC) is associated to high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV)
infections, for this reason it is crucial to have sensitive and accurate HPV diagnostic tests. To …

The interaction between cervicovaginal virome, bacteriome and genital inflammation has not
