The present study investigated the involvement of human papillomavirus (HPV)16 and HPV18 in oropharyngeal malignancies in order to understand the oncogenic mechanisms, and to identify biomarkers for early detection and treatment targets. Given the rising incidence of HPV-associated cancer, particularly in India, this holds significance in elucidating the molecular basis of these diseases. Structural validation of HPV16 and 18 oncoproteins E6 and E7 was conducted using computational tools, while gene expression profiles related to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) were analyzed to assess differential expression.

High-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) are the etiological agents of cervical, anogenital, and a subset of oropharyngeal cancers. In addition, HR-HPVs have been detected in lung carcinomas worldwide, even though the role of these viruses in this type of cancer is not fully understood. This study evaluated the presence of HPV in a cohort of 204 lung cancer cases by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-Luminex.

The E6 and E7 proteins of the high risk human papillomaviruses (HR HPVs) play a key role in the oncogenesis associated with papillomavirus infection. Data on the variability of these proteins are limited, and the factors affecting their variability are still poorly understood. We analyzed the variability of the currently known sequences of the HPV type 16 (HPV16) E6 and E7 proteins, taking into account their geographic origin and year of sample collection, as well as the direction of their evolution in the major geographic regions of the world.

Article Synopsis
  • Human Papillomaviruses (HPV) have co-evolved with humans, being the main cause of cervical cancer, particularly HPV16, which is the most oncogenic high-risk type.
  • The E6/E7 proteins of high-risk HPVs, especially HPV16, are critical for cervical cancer development as they interact with important cellular proteins like p53 and pRb, influencing viral persistence and oncogenesis.
  • New methods for analyzing HPV mutations and alterations in the viral genome could enhance cervical cancer screening processes in France.

Current cancer burden caused by persistent infection with human papillomaviruse genotype 16 (HPV16) cannot be ignored. The related mechanisms of oncoproteins E6 and E7 from HPV16 on keratinocyte malignant transformation need to be further elucidated. GSE3292 dataset analysis revealed the upregulation of ETS transcription factor 3 (ELF3) and cyclin E2 (CCNE2).
