OBJECTIVE To assess the presence of different types of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA in colorectal adenomas. METHODS The extracted DNA of 109 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections of colorectal adenomas were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot hybridization. The correlations of HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18, and 33 DNA with the histological patterns of adenomas were also analyzed. RESULTS Human papillomavirus DNA was detected in 28% of the adenomas. There were eight (21%) of 38 in tubular adenomas, 13 (33%) of 40 in tubulovillous adenomas, and 10 (32%) of 31 in villous adenomas. All HPV-6/11-positive cases were tubular or tubulovillous adenomas. However, most HPV-16 infections (8/12) were seen in villous adenomas. Human papillomavirus-positive adenomas included three (8%) of 38 that showed mild dysplasia, 10 (25%) of 40 that showed moderate dysplasia, and 18 (58%) of 31 that showed severe dysplasia. CONCLUSIONS The association of the histological type with HPV-16 and the association of the grade of epithelial dysplasia with HPV DNA were highly significant. These associations support the adenoma-carcinoma hypothesis. In addition, the results suggest that HPV infection may be an important factor for the development of colorectal neoplasia.

D015179 Colorectal Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the COLON or the RECTUM or both. Risk factors for colorectal cancer include chronic ULCERATIVE COLITIS; FAMILIAL POLYPOSIS COLI; exposure to ASBESTOS; and irradiation of the CERVIX UTERI.

D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.

It is usually a solitary, sessile, often large, tumor of colonic mucosa composed of mucinous epithelium covering delicate vascular projections. Hypersecretion and malignant changes occur frequently.
