Nested PCR approach for detection and typing of epidermodysplasia verruciformis-associated human papillomavirus types in cutaneous cancers from renal transplant recipients

Abstract excerpt

The epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV)-associated human papillomaviruses (HPVs) constitute a group of HPV genotypes isolated mostly from the cutaneous lesions of patients with the genetic disorder of EV. Broad-spectrum detection of EV HPVs in cutaneous lesions of non-EV patients was previously difficult because no EV HPV consensus PCR was available. We describe a nested PCR that enables the detection of all...
