Properties of HPVs

Family: Papillomaviridae
Genus: Papillomavirus
Members: Human papillomaviruses (HPVs)
HPV was named because

of an association with small epithelial proliferations:
'Papilla' = nipple (Latin).
'Oma' = tumor (Greek).
HPVs selectively infect the epithelium of the skin and mucous membranes. These infections may be asymptomatic, produce warts, or be associated with a variety of benign and malignant neoplasias.
>100 HPV types occur.

HPV Pathogenesis

Source: skin lesion and genital lesion, new lesions are probably

more infective than older.
Transmission: spread is via direct contact, genital area transmitted via sexual route.
Target: HPV are highly tropic for epithelial cells of the skin and mucous membrane. All types of squamous epithelium can be infected by HPV.
Replication of HPV: begins with the infection of basal cells. As cellular differentiation proceeds, HPV DNA replicates and is transcribed. Ultimately, virions are assembled in the nucleus and released when keratinocytes are shed.
This process is associated with proliferation of all epidermal layers except the basal layer and produces hyperkeratosis.
Histologically normal epithelium may contain HPV DNA, and residual DNA after treatment can be associated with recurrent disease

Clinical Manifestations

Incubation period of HPV disease is usually 3 to 4

months, up to 2 years.
These infections may be:
1- Asymptomatic
2- Produce warts
3- Associated with a variety of benign and malignant neoplasia
The clinical manifestations of HPV infection depend on the location of the lesions and the type of virus.
Warts in humans, including:
1- Skin warts (common warts): benign, usually occur on the hands as flesh-colored to brown, often regress spontaneously (HPV-2, -4, -27, -57).
2- Plantar warts : painful (HPV-1).
3- Flat wart: common among children, face, neck, chest, and flexor surfaces of the forearms and legs (HPV-3, -10, -28).
4- Anogenital warts (genital condyloma):
sexually transmitted genital lesions
skin and mucosal surfaces of the external genitalia and perianal areas.
caused by specific types of HPVs -6,-11, -40, -42-44, -54, types HPV-16 and HPV-18, regularly become malignant if they persist for a sufficiently long time.
5- Laryngeal papilloma type HPV-6, HPV-11. , children.

How Does HPV “Cause” Cancer?

In high-risk HPV strains 16, 18, 31,

39, 45 and 59:
Protein E6 interacts with p53 in the host cell and promotes it’s degradation via the ubiquitin dependent pathway.
Protein E7 complexes with retinoblastoma protein (Rb), thereby inactivating it.

Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of cancer

death among women world wide.
An estimated 75% of women in the U.S. will be exposed to HPV at some point in their lives.

…The Good News

90% of women infected with HPV clear the infection

through natural means within two years.
It may take 10 to 15 years for an HPV infection to develop into cancer.
Vaccines are currently in development against oncogenic strains.
