Background: Cervical cancer is the most prevalent malignant tumor in women. This study aims to detect collagen type V α1 chain (COL5A1) expression and its clinical relevance in the prognosis of patients with cervical cancer.
Methods: Cervical cancer tissues and their paired adjacent normal tissues were prepared for tissue microarray. The expression of COL5A1 protein and the scores of the expression were evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. The prognostic value of COL5A1 was analyzed by R software version 4.2.1 with "survival, survminer, ggplot2" packages and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA). The cBioPortal database was utilized for the analysis of gene mutations.
Results: COL5A1 protein was overexpressed in human cervical cancer tissues compared to their paired adjacent normal tissues detected by IHC ( < 0.001). High expression of COL5A1 tends to be in elderly patients with cervical cancer. Survival analyses of clinical data of patients with cervical cancer showed that a high level of COL5A1 expression was significantly correlated with shorter overall survival ( = 0.031) and disease-free survival ( = 0.042) of patients. Further analyses of The Cancer Genome Atlas-Cervical Squamous Cell Carcinoma and the GEPIA survival datasets confirmed the association of high COL5A1 expression with poor overall survival of patients ( = 0.040 and = 0.018, respectively). The analysis of genomic alterations of using the cBioPortal tool revealed that the gene was altered in 4% of cervical cancer patients and COL5A1 corresponding protein alterations with post-translational modifications were hydroxylation.
Conclusion: COL5A1 is a tissue biomarker correlated with the poor prognosis of patients with cervical cancer, which may lead to a new clinical application.

The efficacy of photodynamic treatment (PDT) against deep-seated tumor is hindered by low penetration depth of light as well as hypoxic conditions which prevails in tumor. To overcome this limitation, Near-infrared (NIR) absorbing photosensitizers have been investigated actively. In the present study we evaluated the PDT efficacy of an NIR absorbing chlorophyll derivative 'Cycloimide Purpurin-18 (CIPp-18)' in Human Breast carcinoma (MCF-7) and cervical adenocarcinoma (Hela) cells under normoxic and hypoxic conditions.

Background: Vaccination against HPV is an effective strategy for the prevention of HPV infection and cervical cancer. Nevertheless, the HPV vaccine uptake rate is low among ethnic minorities in Hong Kong. This study sought to assess the feasibility and acceptability of motivational interviewing among South Asian mother-daughter dyads and to preliminarily examine its effects on knowledge of HPV infection and vaccination, health beliefs, intention to have the daughters vaccinated, and initiation and completion of HPV vaccine series.

Background: Cervical cancer is a major health burden in females worldwide, available studies indicated that sex-determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2) is closely related to the malignant phenotypes of multiple cancers including cervical cancer. However, the underlying mechanisms were blurred.
Experimental Procedures: A bioinformatics analysis was conducted to investigate the clinical correlation between SOX2 and cervical cancer.
