HPV infection and bacterial microbiota in the placenta, uterine cervix and oral mucosa.

ABSTRACT: We investigated the association between HPV infection and bacterial microbiota composition in the placenta, uterine cervix and mouth in thirty-nine women. HPV DNA genotyping of 24 types was conducted using Multimetrix^®. Microbiota composition was characterized by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. HPV DNA was detected in 33% of placenta, 23% cervical and 33% oral samples. HPV16 was the most frequent type in all regions. HPV infection was associated with higher microbiota richness (p = 0.032) in the mouth but did not influence microbial diversity or richness in other samples. HPV infection was associated with higher abundance of Lactobacillaceae (p = 0.0036) and Ureaplasma (LDA score > 4.0, p < 0.05) in the placenta, Haemophilus (p = 0.00058) and Peptostreptococcus (p = 0.0069) genus in the cervix and Selenomonas spp. (p = 0.0032) in the mouth compared to HPV negative samples. These data suggest altered bacterial microbiota composition in HPV positive placenta, cervix and mouth. Whether the changes in bacterial microbiota predispose or result from HPV remains to be determined in future studies.

HPV infection and bacterial microbiota in the semen from healthy men.

Project description:BackgroundAberrant microbiota composition has been linked to disease development at numerous anatomical sites. Microbiota changes in reaction to viral infections, such as human papillomavirus (HPV), have been investigated almost exclusively in the female reproductive tract. However, HPV infection may also affect male health by reducing semen quality and fertility. The aim of this study was to investigate whether present HPV DNA is associated with detectable changes in semen bacterial microbiota composition and diversity.MethodsThis study relied on stored semen samples from 31 fertile healthy men who participated in the Finnish family HPV Study during the years 1998-2001. DNA was extracted from semen with PCR template preparation kit. HPV was genotyped using Luminex-based Multimetrix® assay. Microbiota was analyzed from the V3-V4 region of 16S rDNA gene following sequencing on an Illumina MiSeq platform. All statistical analyses were performed with Calypso software version 8.84.ResultsHPV DNA was detected in 19.4% (6/31) of the semen samples. HPV status in the semen did not impact the α-diversity estimations, as measured by Chao1 and Shannon indices, nor ß-diversity. Nevertheless, HPV-positive semen samples exhibited differences in the taxonomic composition of the bacterial microbiota including higher abundances of Moraxellaceae (p = 0.028), Streptococcus (p = 0.0058) and Peptostreptococcus (p = 0.012) compared to HPV-negative semen samples.ConclusionHPV infection is associated with altered bacterial microbiota composition in semen, and this might have in impact to male health in general. As of present, it is unclear whether these changes result from HPV infection or whether altered bacterial microbiota increases susceptibility to HPV infection. More research is needed on viral-bacterial interactions in the male reproductive system.

Cell-cycle and suppressor proteins expression in uterine cervix in HIV/HPV co-infection: comparative study by tissue micro-array (TMA).

Project description:BACKGROUND: The oncoproteins of human papillomavirus (HPVs) directly effect cell-cycle control. We hypothesize that regulatory and cell cycle protein expression might be additionally modified in the cervix of HIV/HPV co-infected women. METHODS: We analyzed the expression of Rb, p27, VEGF and Elf-1 transcriptor factor by immunohistochemistry in 163 paraffin-embeded cervical samples using Tissue Micro-Array (TMA) and correlated this to HIV-1 and HPV infection. RESULTS: HIV/HPV co-infection was associated with a significant increase in expression (p < 0.001) of VEGF and p27 in both low and high grade CIN when compared to the cervices of women infected by HPV alone. Decreased Rb expression was evident with increased CIN grade in the cervices of women infected with HPV alone (p = 0.003 average of cells/mm2 in CIN I: 17.9, CIN II/III: 4.8, and tumor 3.9). Rb expression increased 3-fold for both low and high grade CIN with HPV/HIV-1 co-infection compared to HPV infection alone but did not reach statistical significance. There was a significant increase in Elf-1 expression in HPV+/HIV- women with CIN II/III and tumor (average of cells/mm2 in CIN I: 63.8; CIN II/III: 115.7 and tumor: 112.0, p = 0.005), in comparison to controls. CONCLUSION: Co-infection of HPV and HIV leads to significant increase in the VEGF and p27 expression when compared to HPV+/HIV-negative infection that could facilitate viral persistence and invasive tumor development.

≤ Cyclin D1 protein affecting global women's health by regulating HPV mediated adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix.

Project description:Adenocarcinoma (ADC) of the uterine cervix (UC) is a rare form of cervical cancer (CC) caused due to the infection of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Cyclin D1 is one of the downstream targets of aberrantly activated Notch signaling, contribute to the etiology of CC. However, little is known about the role of Cyclin D1 in the modulation of cervical ADC and is controversial. The purpose of this study is to determine the role of Cyclin D1 protein and to elucidate the combined analysis with Notch signaling proteins in HPV associated ADCs of CC. A total of 60 biopsy samples (40 normal and 20 ADCs of CC) were analyzed for the expression of Cyclin D1 in HPV associated ADCs via immunohistochemistry and by immunoblotting. HPV-16 positive ADC patients showed a strong association with the Cyclin D1 expression (p = 0.007). The significant mean difference (p = 0.0001) and the pairwise comparison between Cyclin D1/JAG1 (p = 0.0001), and Cyclin D1/Notch-3 (p = 0.0001) were observed. The above Notch signaling proteins showed their synergistic role in modulating Cyclin D1 which in-turn regulates HPV-16 associated ADC of the uterine cervix (UC), affecting women's global health.

Jagged-1 induced molecular alterations in HPV associated invasive squamous cell and adenocarcinoma of the human uterine cervix.

Project description:The majority of cervical cancer (CC) cases are attributable to HPV infection. Altered Notch pathway signals and HPV are believed to modify clinicopathogenesis of CC, however, the involvement of each molecular player and its mechanism is still not known. Jagged-1 (JAG1) is one of the ligands that induce Notch pathway. The involvement of JAG1 in the modulation of a disease condition is not very clear. Hence, this study aims to study the role of JAG1 in HPV-16/18 associated different histological sub-types of CC, especially ADC. 40 non-neoplastic cervical tissues, 30 precancer and 118 tumor specimens (total 188 tissue biopsies) were studied for the expression of the JAG1 protein through immunohistochemistry, immunoblotting and for HPV infection. Two folds increase of cytoplasmic (Mean?±?S.E, 3.67?±?0.33; p?=?0.0001) and nuclear (3.70?±?0.38, p?=?0.0001) JAG1 expression was identified in normal (N) vs precancer and three folds cytoplasmic (4.44?±?0.17, p?=?0.0001) and nuclear (4.64?±?0.17; p?=?0.0001) in N vs. ISCC. Total 85% of ADC patients were found to be infected with HPV, which were 100% infected with HPV-16. These findings suggest the complex synergistic interplay between JAG1 and HPV in regulating clinicopathological progression of CC through its deregulation.

Multicentre Evaluation of Hepika Test Clinical Accuracy in Diagnosing HPV-Induced Cancer and Precancerous Lesions of the Uterine Cervix.

Project description:To evaluate the clinical accuracy of Hepika test to identify cancer/precancerous lesions of the uterine cervix. A multicentre retrospective study was carried out in 2018 and included 330 liquid-based cytology samples from three Italian centres of women aged 25-64 who had been tested for the human papillomavirus (HPV) and whose histology or follow-up outcome was known. Hepika is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) targeting the protein complexes E6#p53 and E7#pRb. After excluding samples without sufficient residual material, the clinical accuracy of Hepika test was evaluated in 274 samples: adenocarcinoma (ADC) (4), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (7), adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) (1), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 3 (60), CIN2 (51), CIN1 (34), and negative histology (117). Association, sensitivity, and specificity for carcinoma, CIN3+ and CIN2+ are reported. Positive Hepika test was associated with a high probability of carcinoma (odds ratio (DOR) = 33.68, 95% confidence interval (CI) 7.0-163.1); sensitivity was 81.8%, specificity, 88.2%. A positive Hepika test showed a weaker association with CIN3+ lesions (DOR = 3.5; 95% CI 1.75-6.99) and lower sensitivity (27.8%). The Hepika test was found to be an accurate biomarker for HPV-induced cervical carcinoma. Population-based prospective studies are needed to confirm the clinical usefulness of the Hepika test in the differential diagnosis of HPV-induced invasive lesions.

Molecular pathology and clinical treatment of independent HPV primary serous carcinoma of the uterine cervix (USCC): A case report.

Project description:On October 23, 2020, a 69-year-old Chinese female patient was admitted to Yuncheng Hospital due to a history of postmenopausal bleeding and lower abdominal pain for 5 months. The HPV test and pathology results indicated the presence of independent HPV in primary serous carcinoma of the uterine cervix. The genetic testing identified variants of uncertain significance (PAX8 p.Tyr 410 Ter and TP53 p.Asn 247 Ile), microsatellite instability stable (MSI-S), tumor mutational burden (TMB) 7.33Muts/Mb, and an elevated tumor neoantigen burden. Before undergoing radical hysterectomy treatment, the patient exhibited a positive response to three cycles of intravenous docetaxel (100 mg/3 h) and carboplatin (450 mg/1 h). Following the surgery, she received an additional three cycles of docetaxel (100 mg/3 h) and carboplatin (500 mg/1 h), accompanied by 25 cycles of radiation therapy (DT 46Gy/2Gy/23f). Concurrently, cisplatin (450 mg/1 h) was administered. As of now, the patient has achieved 20 months of disease-free survival.

Co-expression of SOX2 and HR-HPV RISH predicts poor prognosis in small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the uterine cervix.

Project description:BackgroundSmall cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the uterine cervix (SCNEC) is a rare cancer involving the human papilloma virus (HPV), and has few available treatments. The present work aimed to assess the feasibility of SOX2 and HPV statuses as predictive indicators of SCNEC prognosis.MethodsThe associations of SOX2 and/or high-risk (HR)-HPV RNA in situ hybridization (RISH) levels with clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic outcomes for 88 neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) cases were analyzed.ResultsAmong these patients with SCNEC, SOX2, P16INK4A and HR-HPV RISH expression and SOX2/HR-HPV RISH co-expression were detected in 68(77.3%), 76(86.4%), 73(83.0%), and 48(54.5%), respectively. SOX2-positive and HR-HPV RISH-positive SCNEC cases were associated with poorer overall survival (OS, P = 0.0170, P = 0.0451) and disease-free survival (DFS, P = 0.0334, P = 0.0309) compared with those expressing low SOX2 and negative HR-HPV RISH. Alternatively, univariate analysis revealed that SOX2 and HR-HPV RISH expression, either separately or in combination, predicted the poor prognosis of SCNEC patients. Multivariate analysis revealed that the co-expression of SOX2 with HR-HPV RISH may be an independent factor of OS [hazard ratio = 3.597; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.085-11.928; P = 0.036] and DFS [hazard ratio = 2.880; 95% CI: 1.199-6.919; P = 0.018] prediction in SCNEC.ConclusionsOverall, the results of the present study suggest that the co-expression of SOX2 with HR-HPV RISH in SCNEC may represent a specific subgroup exhibiting remarkably poorer prognostic outcomes compared with the expression of any one marker alone.

Rotavirus intestinal infection induces an oral mucosa cytokine response.

Project description:Salivary glands are known immune effector sites and considered to be part of the whole mucosal immune system. The aim of the present study was to assess the salivary immune response to rotavirus (RV) infection through the analysis of the cytokine immune profile in saliva.A prospective comparative study of serial saliva samples from 27 RV-infected patients (sampled upon admission to the hospital during acute phase and at convalescence-i.e. at least three months after recovery) and 36 healthy controls was performed. Concentrations of 11 salivary cytokines (IFN-?, IFN-?2, IL-1?, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-15, IL12p70, TNF-?, IFN-?1, IL-22) were determined. Cytokine levels were compared between healthy controls acute infection and convalescence. The correlation between clinical data and salivary cytokine profile in infected children was assessed.The salivary cytokine profile changes significantly in response to acute RV infection. In RV-infected patients, IL-22 levels were increased in the acute phase with respect to convalescence (P-value < 0.001). Comparisons between infected and control group showed significant differences in salivary IFN-?2, IL-1?, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and IL-22. Although acute-phase levels of IL-12, IL-10, IL-6 and IFN-? showed nominal association with Vesikari's severity, this trend did not reach statistical significance after multiple test adjustment.RV infection induces a host salivary immune response, indicating that immune mucosal response to RV infection is not confined to the intestinal mucosa. Our data point to a whole mucosal implication in the RV infection as a result of the integrative mucosal immune response, and suggest the salivary gland as effector site for RV infection.
