Association between human papilloma virus late 1 protein and cervical neoplasia / 中国医学科学院学报

ABSTRACT

Human papilloma virus (HPV) is believed to be an essential factor for the development of cervical cancer. Early diagnosis and treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia can effectively inhibit the future progression. HPV late 1 protein possesses epitope that can identify and adhere to host cells, and thus may play an important role in HPV infection and cervical carcinogenesis.
