In Brazil, most studies of intra-type variants of human papillomavirus (HPV) have focused on HPV16 and HPV18, but other high-risk HPV types have not been studied. Here, we report the prevalence of lineages and variants of HPV35, HPV45 and HPV58 in cervical cancers from the Amazonian and Southeast Brazilian regions. The most frequent sublineages were A1 for HPV35, B2 for HPV45, and A2 for HPV58. The Southeast region had a higher frequency of the B2 sublineage of HPV45, and for HPV35, the genetic and nucleotide sequence diversity were higher in the Southeast region, suggesting that regional factors are influencing the diversity and lineage prevalence.

Most cervical cancers are related to the persistent infections of high-risk Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infections. Increasing evidence has witnessed the immunosuppressive effectiveness of HPV in the oncogenesis steps and progression steps. Here we review the immune response in HPV-related cervical malignancies and discuss the crosstalk between HPVs and the host immune response.

Cervical cancer (CC) is a common malignant tumour of the female reproductive system that is highly harmful to women's health. The efficacy of traditional surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy is limited, especially for recurrent and metastatic CC. With continuous progress in diagnostic and treatment technology, immunotherapy has become a new approach for treating CC and has become a new therapy for recurrent and metastatic CC.

Objective: We investigated the relation between man papillomavirus (HPV) integration status and the immediate risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), as well as the triage strategy based on HPV integration test.
Methods: 4086 women aged 20 to 65 years in China were enrolled in 2015 for a prospective, population-based, clinical observational study to evaluate the triage performance of HPV integration. Cervical exfoliated cells were collected for HPV testing and cytologic test.

Infection by Human Papillomaviruses accounts for the most widespread sexually transmitted infection worldwide. Clinical presentation of these infections can range from subclinical and asymptomatic to anogenital cancers, with the latter associated with persistent infection over a significant period of time. Of the over 200 isotypes of the human virus identified, a subset of these has been characterized as high-risk due to their ability to induce oncogenesis.

Objective: This study aimed to identify upregulated genes in HPV16-positive cervical cancer cells and investigate the impact of downregulating NAD(P) H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) on the survival of these cells.
Methods: Transcriptomic sequencing (RNA-seq) was utilized to pinpoint upregulated genes and associated cancer-related pathways in HPV16-positive cervical cancer cells, comparing them to HPV-negative cervical cancer cells. NQO1 gene knockdown was performed in HPV16-positive cervical cancer cell lines to assess its effect on cell survival, including parameters such as cell proliferation, migration, invasion, cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and the expression of key proteins in the PI3K/AKT pathway, p53, and RECK.
