    Sammanfattning : Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women worldwide and human papillomavirus (HPV) is a prerequisit for the development of this cancer. HPV belongs to the Papillomaviridae family and infects the basal layer of epithelial cells where it generally progresses into warts or condylomas. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Oral leukoplakia, human papillomavirus and cancer transformation : Factors related to human papillomavirus infection and cell proliferation

    Författare :Jonas Sundberg; Göteborgs universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Oral leukoplakia (OL) is clinically diagnosed as a white oral lesion that cannot be scraped of or diagnosed as any other type of oral lesion. OL has the potential to transform into oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The gold standard treatment is a combination of surgical excision if possible, and surveillance. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Detection of human papillomavirus : a study of normal cells, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cancer of the uterine cervix

    Sammanfattning : Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections of the genital tract are now recognized to be among the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases and also a contributing factor to some cancers of the lower genital tract of women and men. Presence of HPV in a clinical specimen is confined to detection of the HPV genome by DNA hybridization techniques. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Human papillomavirus and cellular biomarkers in cervical cancer

    Sammanfattning : Cervical cancer (CC) is caused by a persistent infection of certain types of the human papillomavirus (HPV). Even though great progress has been made in strategies for prevention, and treatment of CC, there is still a need for improved methods in screening and management of women diagnosed with CC. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Different types of human papillomavirus (HPV) vary in the extent they cause precursor lesions (CIN) and cancer. There are limited long-term efficacy data on HPV testing in primary screening Among 72 cervical cancers in Mozambique, HPV 16 and 18 were the most frequent HPV types (69% of cases). LÄS MER
