Human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping is widely used, particularly in combination with high-risk (HR) HPV tests for cervical cancer screening. We developed a genotyping method using sequences of approximately 800 bp in the E6/E7 region obtained by PacBio single molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT) and evaluated its performance against MY09-11 L1 sequencing and after the APTIMA HPV genotyping assay. The levels of concordance of PacBio E6/E7 SMRT sequencing with MY09-11 L1 sequencing and APTIMA HPV genotyping were 100% and 90.8%, respectively. The sensitivity of PacBio E6/EA7 SMRT was slightly greater than that of L1 sequencing and, as expected, lower than that of HR-HPV tests. In the context of cervical cancer screening, PacBio E6/E7 SMRT is then best used after a positive HPV test. PacBio E6/E7 SMRT genotyping is an attractive alternative for HR and LR-HPV genotyping of clinical samples. PacBio SMRT sequencing provides unbiased genotyping and can detect multiple HPV infections and haplotypes within a genotype.

Aims: In people living with human immune deficiency (PLHIV), the rates of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, mixed types, and high-risk (HR) strains increase, while the virus clearance is prevented. Here, we report HPV genotyping in PLHIVs from Iran and the Middle East region for the first time.

Methods: HPV genotyping in referring individuals from different provinces to our laboratory was evaluated over 2023-2024.

Background: Cervical screening, aimed at detecting precancerous lesions and preventing cancer, is based on cytology and HPV testing. Both methods have limitations, the main ones being the variable diagnostic sensitivity of cytology and the moderate specificity of HPV testing. Various molecular biomarkers are proposed in recent years to improve cervical cancer management, including a number of mRNAs encoded by human genes involved in carcinogenesis.

Background: Oncogene-Induced Senescence (OIS) is a form of senescence that occurs as a consequence of oncogenic overstimulation and possibly infection by oncogenic viruses. Whether senescence plays a role in the pathogenesis of cervical cancer (CC) is not well understood. Moreover, whether cervical epithelial cells that are part of the premalignant cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), exhibit markers of OIS in Human Papillomavirus (HPV)-infected tissue, has not been investigated.

Cervical cancer is a significant public health issue for women, with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection rates exhibiting regional variations throughout China. This study examined data from a cohort of 24,588 rural women who engaged in cervical cancer screening in Luonan County from 2021 to 2023, utilizing high-risk HPV (hrHPV) testing methodologies. The findings revealed an overall HPV positivity rate of 14.

Effectiveness of HPV vaccination in reducing infection among young Brazilian women.

BMC Infect Dis

January 2025

Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciências Farmacêuticas (CiPharma), Escola de Farmácia, Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP), Campus Universitário, Morro do Cruzeiro, Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais, 35402-163, Brazil.

Background: Globally, cervical cancer is an increasing public health issue, and vaccination against HPV has proven to be an effective strategy to reduce this neoplasia. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the quadrivalent vaccine in reducing the prevalence and incidence of HPV infection in women, aged 18 to 24 years old, in the cities of Ouro Preto and Mariana, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Methods: A concurrent cohort study was performed, with an initial follow-up of 12 to 18 months.
