Human Papillomavirus Type 16 E5 Protein Induces Expression of Beta Interferon through Interferon Regulatory Factor 1 in Human Keratinocytes
10 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
Crucial steps in high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV)-related carcinogenesis are the integration of HR-HPV into the host genome and loss of viral episomes. The mechanisms that promote cervical neoplastic progression are, however, not clearly understood. During HR-HPV infection, the HPV E5 protein is expressed in precancerous stages but not after viral integration. Given that it has been reported that loss of...
