Human Papillomavirus in Brazilian women with and without cervical lesions.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Human Papillomavirus (HPV) high-risk (HR) types are the causal factor for cervical cancer and premalignant dysplasia. Data on frequency of HPV types provide a basis to design and evaluate HPV prevention programs. Taking into account the heterogeneity of HPV types across and within populations this study aims to access the HPV frequency in Brazilian women. RESULTS: We identified 24 different types of HPV, including a Betapapillomavirus and a likely new type, previously reported, from 132 women positive for the virus analysed by Hybrid Capture II assay. These women were infected by a single or multiple HPV types and 142 HPV strains were identified. HR types were found in 75% of women and HPV types 16, 18, 45, 58, and 66 had the highest frequency. Significant differences in frequency of HR HPV types were found for presence of cervical lesions, and for different HPV species and women age. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with previous studies in Brazil, our data indicated differences in frequency and HPV type diversity, a significant association of other HR-types but HPV16 and 18 and cervical lesions, and a trend for distinct distribution of HPV types by age.

Project description:ObjectiveTo study the outcome of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in women with cervical pathology results of non-cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) or cervical cancer and positive high-risk HPV test, as well as analyze the associated risk factors affecting the outcome of infection.MethodsTo investigate the outcome of high-risk (HR)-HPV infection in the female genital tract and analyze the associated risk factors affecting their outcome, a total of 196 women with positive HR-HPV test results and non-CIN or cervical cancer cervical pathology results were selected for follow-up at the Cervical Disease Clinic of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2017 to March 2020. The follow-up interval was every 6 months, and both cervical cytology (TCT) and HR-HPV testing were performed at each follow-up visit. If the cervical cytology results were normal upon recheck and the HR-HPV test was negative, the woman was considered to be cleared of the HPV infection and was entered into the routine cervical screening population. When the repeat HR-HPV test remained positive after 6 months, the woman was defined as having a persistent HR-HPV infection. If HR-HPV persisted but the TCT results were normal, follow-up was continued. If HR-HPV persisted and the TCT results were abnormal, a colposcopy-guided biopsy was performed immediately. In this situation, if the histological results were still non-CIN or cervical cancer, the follow-up was continued. If the histological results confirmed the development of CIN or invasive cancer, then enter another study follow-up to further track its development and outcome, and the woman commenced the treatment process. The HPV infection clearance time was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method, and the comparison of the HPV clearance rate and infection clearance time between each of the different groups was performed using aχ2 test or Fisher's exact test, as appropriate. After the univariate analysis, several significant factors were included in the Cox model and independent risk factors were analyzed.ResultsA total of 163 women were enrolled in this study. The median age was 40.0 years (22-67 years) and the median follow-up time was 11.5 months (6-31 months). The spontaneous clearance rate of HR-HPV infection was 51.5%, and the median time to viral clearance was 14.5 months. Age and the initial viral load were high risk factors affecting the spontaneous clearance of HR-HPV infection. The factors significantly associated with HPV clearance rate and time to HPV clearance consisted of menopause and full-term delivery (P < 0.05).ConclusionsIn women with normal or low-grade lesions on the cell smear, the spontaneous clearance rate of HR-HPV infection was 51.5% and the time to clearance was 14.5 months. Age and the initial viral load were independent associated factors affecting the spontaneous clearance of HR-HPV infection in the female genital tract. These findings suggest that non-young women or those with high viral loads have a higher rate of persistent HR-HPV infection. Thus, intensive screening should be recommended.

Project description:BackgroundHuman papillomavirus (HPV) type 67 is phylogenetically classified into Alphapapillomavirus species 9 (alpha-9) together with other carcinogenic types (HPV16, 31, 33, 35, 52 and 58), but is the only alpha-9 type defined as possibly carcinogenic. This study aimed to determine whole-genome sequences of HPV67 isolated from Japanese women with cervical cancer or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) to better understand the genetic basis of the oncogenic potential of HPV67.MethodsTotal cellular DNA isolated from cervical exfoliated cells that were single positive for HPV67 (invasive cervical cancer, n = 2; CIN3, n = 6; CIN 2, n = 1; CIN1, n = 2; the normal cervix, n = 1) was subjected to PCR to amplify HPV67 DNA, followed by next generation sequencing to determine the complete viral genome sequences. Variant lineages/sublineages were assigned through viral whole-genome phylogenetic analysis. The transcriptional activity of the virus early promoter was assessed by luciferase reporter assays in cervical cancer cell lines.ResultsPhylogenetic analyses of HPV67 genomes from Japan (n = 12) revealed that 11 belonged to lineage A (sublineage A1, n = 9; sublineage A2, n = 2) and one belonged to lineage B. All cancer cases contained sublineage A1 variants, and one of these contained an in-frame deletion in the E2 gene. The long control region of the HPV67 genome did not induce transcription from the virus early promoter in HeLa cells, but showed weak transcriptional activity in CaSki cells.ConclusionsThe single detection of HPV67 in cervical cancer and precancer specimens strongly suggests the carcinogenic potential of this rare genotype. The phylogenetic analysis indicates a predominance of lineage A variants among HPV67 infections in Japan. Since only 23 complete genome sequences of HPV67 had been obtained until now, the newly determined genome sequences in this study are expected to contribute to further functional and evolutionary studies on the genetic diversity of HPV67.
