Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), one of the key immune system effectors, plays a main role in immune recognition of cervical cancer. Micro-RNAs are involved in regulation of multiple important genes in the progression of cervical cancer. A case-control study of 592 people was conducted from Yun’an County, Yunfu City, Guangdo..

Human papillomavirus infection in Brazilian women with normal cervical cytology
Authors: P.M. Miranda, B.C.V. Pitol, M.S. Moran, N.N.T. Silva, P.M. Felix, J.L. Lima-Filho, C.M. Carneiro, I.D.C.G. Silva, R.F. Carvalho, A.A. Lima, W. Be?§ak and R.C. Stocco
We examined the prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in a sample of Brazilian women presenting normal cervical cytology. Possible interactions between patient characteristics and HPV infection were analyzed in order to provide background data to improve cervical cancer screening and prophylaxis. Cervical samples ..

Human papillomavirus viral load in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia as a prognostic factor in a Mexican population
Authors: A.E. Bencomo-?lvarez, I. Limones-Perches, A.E. Su?¡rez-Rinc?³n, L.J. Ram?rez-Jirano, E. Borrayo-Carbajal, J. S?¡nchez-Corona and H. Montoya-Fuentes
Persistent infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) has been recognized as the main etiological factor of morbimortality in cervical cancer. Several factors have been associated with the development of cervical disease, but viral load has recently been proposed as an indicator of cervical neoplasia. Therefore, a single measur.. Read More»

Quantitative analysis of P16 gene CpG methylation in Uyghur patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma and its relationship with HPV16 infection
Authors: J.-X. Cheng, M. Yuan, A.-L. Li, P. Zhou, G.-Q. Shen and Y. Zhang
The methylation of CpG sites in the promoter region of the P16 gene in Uyghur patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) was quantitatively analyzed and its relationship with human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) infection was explored. Cervical samples were collected from 20 Uyghur patients with CSCC and 20 Uyghur controls. Matrix-assisted .. Read More»

Authors: M.M. Castro, I.P. Farias, C.M. Borborema-Santos, G. Correia and S. Astolfi-Filho
Infection by human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the primary causes of mortality by cancer in northern Brazil. Sexually active women from Manaus, Amazonas, without cytological alterations and women with pre-malignant and malignant cytological alterations were examined for HPV virus, identified via PCR and sequencing.
