HPV can affect ___ which is in the ___ phase
human papilloma virus can affect Rb which is in M phase
HPV is a very diverse and species specific group of viruses
-100 different types have been identified
-30-40 hpv types affect the anogenital tract, of these 15-20 are high-risk types associated with cancer, and 10-15
hpv
high risk and low risk most common
high risk 16 and 18
6 and 11 are low risk
any sickness is a simple
fact of the cell going wrong
assembly of HPV particle
360 copies of L1 protein
72 capsomers (pentamer of 5 L1s)
+ virol DNA + L2 protein
assembly of HPV particle explained
5 L1 monomers asssemble into a pentamer or capsomer, the basic structural unit of the virus particle. Then 72 capsomers assemble with L2 protein and viral DNA to form the virus particle
the basic structural unit of the virus particle is
a pentamer or capsomer
important functions of viral proteins
-e6:
-e7
L1
L2
e6
destruction of the p53 tumor suppressor protein
e7
inactivation of the Rb tumor suppressor protein
L1
forms VLP (viral protein coat)
L2
binds to DNA
dysplasia
alteration in shape, size, and organization of cells
-different from neoplasia which refers to abnormal cell growth
HPV binds and infects teh ____
basal cells in the basal layer of the epithelium
CIN- cervical intraepithelial neoplasia
classifies severity of dysplasia, in a cervical tissue specimen
the important cell bio of HPV and cellular consequences of infection
1) hpv e6 & e7 are produced as basal cells divide and move towards the outside of the mucosa & become the PB & SQ layer of the mucosal epithelium
2 once here, e6 & 7 inhibit p53 & rb protein which normally prevent
cell division in these layers. There fore the cell are free to divide and produce the thickened skin which is characteristic of a genital wart
3 dna replicates as an episome in the ___
PB and squamous layer. also in these layers, L1 & L2 are produced
4 the significance of this cycle is that hpv delays production of immunogenic L1 and L2 until the
cells have terminally differentiated into squamous epithelium which is sloughed off and not accessible to immune cells
genital wart is a
disregulation in cell cycle
5 thus an immune response to L1 & L2 proteins is
slow to appear and doesn't occur in all individuals infected with HPV
6 high levels of e6 & 7 (in Cin3) may lead to the development of
cervical cancer
lifetime risk for sexually active men and women is at least
50%
by 50 years of age, at least 80% of women will have accquired
genital HPV infection
estimated incidence
estimated prevalence
6.2 mil/year
20 mil
routes of HPV transmission
sexual routes: sex, g-g, hand-g, oral-g
non-sexual: extragenital-fomitos
vertical: mother-neonate-respiratory papillomatosis
risk factors for HPV infection
females
males
females: 20-24, young age of sex, # partners, uncircumcised male
males: 25-29, # partner, being unc
key point: hpv 6 and 11 are responsible for
>90% of anogenital warts
indications for treatment
bothersome symptoms: pruritus, bleeding, burning, discharge, pain
-obstruction of the vagina
-treatment is not mandatory as 20-30% spontaneously regress
treatment modalities
chemical and physical destruction
-surgical excision
-applied topical solution/drugs
vaccines
an antigenic substance administered to produce immunity to a disease thereby preventing the effects of infection
18-25 yr old women: 1 partner
2 partner
3 partner
14.3 hpv
22
32%
fomites:
anything that you can spread outside the bodies (you have to have the secretions on it) low risk
what percent of cervical cancer is from hpv?
100%
types of vaccines
inactivated vaccine
attenuated vaccine
subunit/recombinant vaccine
inactivated vaccine
-consists of virus particle grown in culture then killed
-particles are unable to replicate
-capsid proteins "survive" and illicit an immune response
-boosters are required periodically
-hep A
attenuated vaccine
live virus particles are administered
-particles are of low virulence
-particles are able to reproduce but very slowly
-boosters are required infrequently
-MMR, Varivax
subunit/recombinant vaccine
2 methods
1) placement of a protein gene from the targeted virus into another virus. the second virus expresses the protein, but provides no risk to the patient
2) administration of an isolated protein virus
gardasil summary
addresses HPV types associated with cervical dysplasias and genital warts
-induces amnestic response
-vaccination is prophylactic and max. efficacy is with those w/o previous exposure to HPV
gardasil
4 capsids- tetravalent
6,11,16,18
6,11 related to 90% of cc
16,18 70% cc
