Gene Expression of Genital Human Papillomaviruses and Considerations on Potential Antiviral Approaches

Abstract excerpt

Genital human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are carcinogenic to humans and are associated with most cases of cervical cancer, genital and laryngeal warts, and certain cutaneous neoplastic lesions. Five of the more than 50 known genital HPV types, HPV-6, -11, -16, -18 and -31, have become the models to study gene expression. The comparison of the studies of these five viruses and analyses of the genomic sequences of...
