HPV integration plays an important role in cervical carcinogenesis. HPV genotypes and the exact integration sites were investigated using HPV capture technology combined with next generation sequencing in 166 women. Three, one and six integration sites were verified in 7 HPV-positive 'normal cervical epithelium', 6 HPV-positive CIN2 and 15 HPV-positive CIN 3 samples, respectively. Of the 10 integrations, one and nine were involved with HPV33 and HPV16, respectively. Our study accurately evaluate ...[more]

Project description:Integration of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA into the host genome can be a driver mutation in cervical carcinoma. Identification of HPV integration at base resolution has been a longstanding technical challenge, largely due to sensitivity masking by HPV in episomes or concatenated forms. The aim was to enhance the understanding of the precise localization of HPV integration sites using an innovative strategy. Using HPV capture technology combined with next generation sequencing, HPV prevalence and the exact integration sites of the HPV DNA in 47 primary cervical cancer samples and 2 cell lines were investigated. A total of 117 unique HPV integration sites were identified, including HPV16 (n = 101), HPV18 (n = 7), and HPV58 (n = 9). We observed that the HPV16 integration sites were broadly located across the whole viral genome. In addition, either single or multiple integration events could occur frequently for HPV16, ranging from 1 to 19 per sample. The viral integration sites were distributed across almost all the chromosomes, except chromosome 22. All the cervical cancer cases harboring more than four HPV16 integration sites showed clinical diagnosis of stage III carcinoma. A significant enrichment of overlapping nucleotides shared between the human genome and HPV genome at integration breakpoints was observed, indicating that it may play an important role in the HPV integration process. The results expand on knowledge from previous findings on HPV16 and HPV18 integration sites and allow a better understanding of the molecular basis of the pathogenesis of cervical carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundmicroRNA (miRNA)'s direct regulation on target mRNA is affected by complex factors beyond miRNA. Therefore, at different stages during the course of carcinogenesis, miRNA may regulate different targets, which we termed 'miRNA's differential regulation'. HPV-induced cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is an important pre-cancerous course ahead of cervical cancer formation. Currently, the molecular mechanisms of CIN progress remain poorly understood, and it is interesting to unravel this from the perspective of miRNA differential regulation.ResultsIn this study, we performed transcriptome analysis of miRNAs and mRNAs for the totally 24 cervical samples in three stages (normal, CIN I, and CIN III) along CIN progress, and proposed the SIG++ algorithm to detect the miRNA - mRNA pairs with significant regulation change, and further proposed the definitions of Efficient Pair, Efficient Target, and Related Effector Biological Process, as the elemental steps to construct miRNA differential regulatory network. Finally, for the course of disease progressing from normal stage to CIN I stage, and for the course of disease progressing from CIN I stage to CIN III stage, miRNA differential regulatory networks were constructed, respectively, based on two distinct strategies: one is founded on the knowledge of human GO biological processes to detect Efficient Targets and Related Effector Biological Processes, the other is solely founded on literature review to detect the targets closely related to cervical carcinogenesis and instructive in revealing mechanisms that promote CIN development.ConclusionsThis study provided the conception of miRNA's differential regulation, the algorithm for how to identify them during disease development, and the strategy for how to construct miRNA differential regulatory network with instructive biological meanings. The finally constructed networks provide clues for understanding CIN progress.

Project description:Hypermethylation of human papillomavirus (HPV) and host genes has been reported in cervical cancer. However, the degree of methylation of different HPV types relative to the severity of the cervical lesions remains controversial. Studies of the degree of methylation associated with the host gene and the HPV genome to the severity of cervical lesions are rare. We examined the association of methylation status between host genes and late gene 1 (L1) regions of HPV16, 18, 52, and 58 in cervical brushings.Cervical brushings from 147 HPV-infected patients were obtained. The samples comprised normal (n=28), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1 (n=45), CIN2 (n=13), and CIN3/carcinoma in situ (n=61). The methylation status of HPV and host genes was measured using bisulfite pyrosequencing and quantitative methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR).The degree of methylation of L1 in HPV16, 18, and 52 was associated with the severity of the cervical lesion. In HPV52, C-phosphate-G (CpG) sites 6368m, 6405m, and 6443m showed significantly higher methylation in lesions ?CIN3 (p=0.005, 0.003, and 0.026, respectively). Methylation of most HPV types except HPV52 (r<-0.1) was positively correlated with the degree of methylation of host genes including PAX1 and SOX1 (0.4?r?0.7). Combining HPV methylation with PAX1 methylation improved the clustering for ?CIN2.Our study showed that the degree of L1 methylation of HPV16, 18, and 52 but not 58 is associated with the severity of cervical lesions. The association between HPV methylation and host gene methylation suggests different responses of host cellular epigenetic machinery to different HPV genotypes.

Project description:Cervical cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in gynecology. Deploying HIVID, a cost-effective technique to detect HPV integration sites, our team had studied the characteristics of HPV integrations in cervical exfoliated cells. Our results indicated that both the sample proportion and the number of HPV integrations gradually increased following the development of cervical lesion. Meanwhile, our data also revealed that there were recurrent genes integrated by HPV in cervical exfoliated cells. Collectively, the HPV integration breakpoints were highly enriched in the intron and promoter regions. Intriguingly, the gene pathway analysis indicated that the HPV-integrated genes were strongly inclined to pathways of metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450, chemical carcinogenesis and steroid hormone biosynthesis. In conclusion, this study unveiled the HPV integration patterns and the associated recurrent genes in cervical epithelial exfoliated cells. Altogether, our data suggested that the HPV integrations in cervical exfoliated cells might have vital clinical significance, and probably also diagnostic and/or prognostic values in future clinical applications.

Project description:BACKGROUND: The development of cervical cancer and its high-grade precursor lesions (Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia grade 2/3 [CIN2/3]) result from a persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) types and the accumulation of (epi)genetic host cell aberrations. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated variable CIN2/3 and cancer risks between different hrHPV types. Recent genomic profiling studies revealed substantial heterogeneity in the chromosomal aberrations detected in morphologically indistinguishable CIN2/3 suggestive of varying cancer risk. The current study aimed to investigate whether CIN2/3 with different hrHPV types vary with respect to their chromosomal profiles, both in terms of the number of aberrations and chromosomal loci affected. METHODS: Chromosomal profiles were determined of 43 p16INK4a-immunopositive CIN2/3 of women with long-term hrHPV infection (? 5 years). Sixteen lesions harboured HPV16, 3 HPV18, 14 HPV31, 1 HPV33, 4 HPV45, 1 HPV51, 2 HPV52 and 2 HPV58. RESULTS: Unsupervised hierarchical clustering analysis of the chromosomal profiles revealed two major clusters, characterised by either few or multiple chromosomal aberrations, respectively. A majority of 87.5% of lesions with HPV16 were in the cluster with relatively few aberrations, whereas no such unbalanced distribution was seen for lesions harbouring other hrHPV types. Analysis of the two most prevalent types (HPV16 and HPV31) in this data set revealed a three-fold increase in the number of losses in lesions with HPV31 compared to HPV16-positive lesions. In particular, losses at chromosomes 2q, 4p, 4q, 6p, 6q, 8q & 17p and gain at 1p & 1q were significantly more frequent in HPV31-positive lesions (FDR < 0.2). CONCLUSIONS: Chromosomal aberrations in CIN2/3 are at least in part related to the hrHPV type present. The relatively low number of chromosomal aberrations observed in HPV16-positive CIN2/3 suggests that the development of these lesions is less dependent on genetic insult than those caused by other types like HPV31.

Project description:In this open, extended follow-up study (NCT00929526, Clinicaltrials.gov), we evaluated the human papillomavirus (HPV)-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine efficacy, immunogenicity and safety up to 4 years after first vaccination in Japanese women aged 20-25 years. In the initial randomized, double-blind study (NCT00316693), 1040 women received the study vaccine or hepatitis A control vaccine; 752 women were included in the follow-up study. In women from the according-to-protocol efficacy cohort (ATP-E), who were initially seronegative for the HPV type analyzed, no cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 1 or greater (CIN1+) cases associated with HPV-16/18 were reported in the HPV group, while in the control group, 5 cases were identified in extended follow-up analyses (vaccine efficacy [VE] 100% [95% CI: -3.7-100]) and 8 cases in combined initial and follow-up studies analyses (VE 100% [42.2-100]). In the ATP-E, VE against CIN1+ and CIN2+ associated with high-risk HPV types reached 66.4% (21.6-87.1) and 83.0% (22.1-98.2) in extended follow-up analyses, and 63.4% (28.8-82.3) and 77.3% (30.4-94.4) in analyses of combined studies, respectively. During the 4-year period, protection against CIN1+ and CIN2+, irrespective of the HPV type, was 56.7% (32.8-72.6) and 54.9% (20.5-75.3) in women receiving ?1 vaccine dose, regardless of baseline serostatus (total vaccinated cohort [TVC]) and 61.0% (11.8-84.2) and 73.9% (1.1-95.3) in women naïve to HPV infection at baseline (TVC-naïve), respectively. The high VE observed in Japanese women, accompanied by a sustained immune response and a clinically acceptable safety profile, support findings of large, international trials.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The aim was to estimate the risk of subsequent extra-cervical Human Papillomavirus (HPV) related cancer in patients surgically treated for high grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN 2-3). This is the first study in Italy investigating the occurrence of extra-cervical tumors in this cohort of patients. METHODS:3184 patients surgically treated for CIN2-3 since 1992 at the Department of Surgical Sciences of University of Torino were considered. The risk of HPV-related cancer was calculated as Standardized Incidence Ratio (SIR), using as expected values tumour age specific incidence of resident population. RESULTS:173?second primary cancer (SCPs) were identified. SIR to develop cancer after treatment for CIN2-3 was 2.2 (CI 95% 1.89-2.50). Among these occurrences, 10 are in HPV related sites: 1 anus (SIR?=?1.8; 0.04-10.0), 3 vagina (SIR?=?12.4; 2.56-36.3), 1 vulva (SIR?=?1.7; 0.04-9.59), 5 oropharynx (SIR?=?8.5; 2.76-19.8). Significant risk has been also recorded for pulmonary (SIR?=?3.1; 0.70-5.27) and bladder (SIR?=?4.05; 1.10-10.56), with smoking as possible cofactor. We also found increased risk for breast (SIR?=?2.4; 2.07-2.84) and ovarian cancers (SIR?=?2.1; 1.13-3.49), probably due to an higher adherence to spontaneous and programmed screening programs. CONCLUSIONS:Our study supports the hypothesis of an increased risk of HPV-related tumours for CIN treated patients, mostly for CIN3. It is conceivable the need of early diagnosis for these cancers in this higher-risk populations.

Project description:BackgroundKnowledge of the prevalence of type-specific human papillomavirus (HPV) infections is necessary to predict the expected, and to monitor the actual, impact of HPV immunisation and to design effective screening strategies for vaccinated populations.MethodsResidual specimens of cervical cytology (N=4719), CIN3/CGIN and cervical cancer biopsies (N=1515) were obtained from sites throughout England, anonymised and tested for HPV DNA using the Linear Array typing system (Roche).ResultsThe prevalence of HPV 16 and/or 18 (with or without another high-risk (HR) type) was 76% in squamous cell carcinomas, 82% in adeno/adenosquamous carcinomas and 63% and 91% in CIN3 and CGIN, respectively. Of all HR HPV-infected women undergoing cytology, non-vaccine HPV types only were found in over 60% of those with mild dyskaryosis or below, and in <20% of those with cancer. In women of all ages undergoing screening, HR HPV prevalence was 16% and HPV 16 and/or 18 prevalence was 5%.ConclusionPre-immunisation, high-grade cervical disease in England was predominantly associated with HPV 16 and/or 18, which promises a high impact from HPV immunisation in due course. Second-generation vaccines and screening strategies need to consider the best ways to detect and prevent disease due to the remaining HR HPV types.

Project description:Since cervical cancer still afflicts women around the world, it is necessary to understand the underlying mechanism of cervical cancer development. Infection with HPV is essential for the development of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). In addition, estrogen receptor signaling is implicated in the development of cervical cancer. Previously, we have isolated human wings apart-like (WAPL), which is expected to cause chromosomal instability in the process of HPV-infected precancerous lesions to cervical cancer. However, the role of WAPL in the development of CIN is still unknown. In this study, in order to elucidate the role of WAPL in the early lesion, we established WAPL overexpressing mice (WAPL Tg mice) and HPV E6/E7 knock-in (KI) mice. WAPL Tg mice developed CIN lesion without HPV E6/E7. Interestingly, in WAPL Tg mice estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) showed reduction as compared with the wild type, but cell growth factors MYC and Cyclin D1 controlled by ESR1 expressed at high levels. These results suggested that WAPL facilitates sensitivity of ESR1 mediated by some kind of molecule, and as a result, affects the expression of MYC and Cyclin D1 in cervical cancer cells. To detect such molecules, we performed microarray analysis of the uterine cervix in WAPL Tg mice, and focused MACROD1, a co-activator of ESR1. MACROD1 expression was increased in WAPL Tg mice compared with the wild type. In addition, knockdown of WAPL induced the downregulation of MACROD1, MYC, and Cyclin D1 but not ESR1 expression. Furthermore, ESR1 sensitivity assay showed lower activity in WAPL or MACROD1 downregulated cells than control cells. These data suggested that WAPL increases ESR1 sensitivity by activating MACROD1, and induces the expression of MYC and Cyclin D1. Therefore, we concluded that WAPL not only induces chromosomal instability in cervical cancer tumorigenesis, but also plays a key role in activating estrogen receptor signaling in early tumorigenesis.

Project description:The objective was to assess the diagnostic test accuracy of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing of self-collected urine and cervicovaginal samples for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or higher (CIN2+). We recruited a convenience sample of women 25 to 65 years of age who were undergoing clinically indicated colposcopy at two medical centers in North Carolina between November 2016 and January 2019. Women with normal cytology results and positive hrHPV results were also recruited. Urine samples, self-collected cervicovaginal samples, provider-collected cervical samples, and cervical biopsy samples were obtained from all enrolled women. Samples were tested for hrHPV DNA using the Onclarity assay (Becton Dickinson, Sparks, MD). Biopsy samples were histologically graded as CIN2+ or <CIN2. We calculated the sensitivity and specificity for detection of CIN2+ and assessed agreement between sample collection methods. We included 307 women (median age, 36 years) with valid histology results and triple-matched urine, self-collected cervicovaginal, and provider-collected cervical hrHPV results; 83 women (27%) had CIN2+. Urine-based hrHPV testing correctly identified 80% of CIN2+ cases (95% confidence interval [CI], 71 to 88%) using the PCR cycle threshold (CT ) established for provider-collected cervical samples, but sensitivity remained below the estimates for self-collected cervicovaginal and provider-collected cervical samples (both 94% [95% CI, 89 to 99%]). Using a higher CT cutoff value of ≤40, 90% sensitivity was achieved for urine-based hrHPV testing. Agreement between results for urine samples and self-collected cervicovaginal samples (kappa = 0.58) or provider-collected cervical samples (kappa = 0.54) was moderate. Urine-based hrHPV testing may be a promising approach to improve cervical cancer screening coverage, especially among women with limited access to health care.
