Molecular Insights into HPV-Driven Head and Neck Cancers: From Viral Oncoproteins to Precision Therapeutics
2025-07-22
Abstract excerpt
Human papillomavirus (HPV) plays a major role in the development of head and neck cancers (HNCs), particularly oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. This review highlights the key molecular mechanisms of HPV-driven carcinogenesis, focusing on the oncogenic E6 and E7 proteins and their disruption of tumor suppressor pathways and epigenetic regulation. We discuss the rising prevalence of HPV-related HNCs, their dis...
