Real-Time PCR-Based System for Simultaneous Quantification of Human Papillomavirus Types Associated with High Risk of Cervical Cancer
1 Jul 2003
Abstract excerpt
We have previously shown that women with a high titer of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) in cervical epithelial cells have an increased risk of developing cervical carcinoma in situ. In order to study the relationship between viral DNA amount and risk of cervical carcinoma for the HPV types most commonly found in cervical tumors, we developed a real-time PCR assay for the detection and quantification of...
