Forty patients with invasive cancer of cervix from New Delhi were examined for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) and herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 2 DNA sequences in a Southern hybridization assay. Data were analysed according to the histologic type of cancer. HPV DNA sequences were detected in 82.5% biopsies and HSV-2 DNA sequences were found in 10% biopsies. HPV-16 DNA sequences were found either alone or together with HPV-18 and/or HSV-2 Bgl II N fragment in 55% biopsies from keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma, whereas HPV-18 sequences were found in 35% biopsies. Similarly, 50% biopsies from patients with non keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma contained HPV-16 DNA and 38.9% biopsies had HPV-18 DNA. HSV-2 Bgl II N DNA sequences were present in 10% biopsies which were also positive for HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 DNA sequences. Two biopsies from adenocarcinoma of uterine cervix contained HPV-18 and HPV-16 DNA sequences. Therefore, no significant correlation seems to exist between HPV-types and histologic types or grades of differentiation of tumor.

D027383 Papillomaviridae A family of small, non-enveloped DNA viruses infecting birds and most mammals, especially humans. They are grouped into multiple genera, but the viruses are highly host-species specific and tissue-restricted. They are commonly divided into hundreds of papillomavirus "types", each with specific gene function and gene control regions, despite sequence homology. Human papillomaviruses are found in the genera ALPHAPAPILLOMAVIRUS; BETAPAPILLOMAVIRUS; GAMMAPAPILLOMAVIRUS; and MUPAPILLOMAVIRUS.
