Diverse tumorigenic consequences of human papillomavirus integration in primary oropharyngeal cancers

2021-06-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes 5% of all cancers and frequently integrates into host chromosomes, but the impacts of integration in tumorigenesis remain unclear. Analysis of 105 HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancers by whole genome sequencing detects viral integration in 77%, revealing five statistically significant integration hotspots near genes that regulate epithelial stem cell maintenance (i...
