In vitro Progression of Human Papillomavirus 16 Episome-Associated Cervical Neoplasia Displays Fundamental Similarities to Integrant-Associated Carcinogenesis
4 May 2010
Abstract excerpt
An important event in the development of cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is deregulated expression of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) oncogenes, most commonly related to viral integration into host DNA. Mechanisms of development of the approximately 15% of SCCs that contain extrachromosomal (episomal) HR-HPV are poorly understood due to limited longitudinal data. We therefore used the W12 model to...
