Papillomaviruses (PVs) frequently infect humans as well as non-human species. While most PV infections are asymptomatic, PVs can also cause hyperplastic papillomas (warts) as well as pre-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions. In this review, the life cycle of PVs is discussed, along with the mechanisms by which PVs cause hyperplastic and neoplastic diseases.

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.

Background: Monitoring trends in diseases after the implementation of new public health interventions or policy changes is crucial for public health planning and surveillance. In this study we look at variations in rates of cervical cancer and grade-3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN3) incidence between 2006 and 2020 in England and relate them to predictions based on the changes in HPV vaccination and cervical screening policy.
Methods: Using population-based registry data, we estimated incidence rates and their 95% confidence intervals for cervical cancer and CIN3 by age group and by either year of diagnosis or 1-year birth cohort.

In this issue of Cancer Cell, Son et al. highlight an unexpected role for skin β-papillomaviruses in the protection against skin carcinogenesis. T cell immunity to skin papillomaviruses blocks the expansion of p53 mutant clones in ultraviolet (UV) radiation-damaged skin, preventing the development of skin cancer.

Papillomaviruses (PV) affect dogs and cats. Oral papillomas are common in young dogs and generally do not require treatment because they resolve spontaneously. The virus is spread via direct contact during play, or via indirect contact (from the environment, through fomites).
