Abstract excerpt
Expression of the E6 oncoprotein of human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 in primary human keratinocytes (PHKs) was previously shown to significantly reduce apoptosis. This could be due to increased cell adhesion. Adhesion ability was tested by seeding cells on tissue culture dishes coated with different concentrations of poly(HEME) and determination of the proportion of attached cells. Assays were carried out with PHKs,...
