ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the relationship between human papillomavirus(HPV) infection and expression of human leukocyte antigen class I (HLA-I) family genes (HLA-A, B and C) in cervical cancers of Uighur women, and to investigate their effect on cervical cancer progression.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Fresh tissue samples of 78 Uighur women with cervical squamous carcinoma, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) or benign cervicitis were selected. HLA-A, B and C expression and HPV infection were analyzed using RT-PCR and HPV gene chips, respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There was a tendency of increasing the total loss of HLA-A, B and C mRNA as the cervical lesions became more aggressive. Loss of HLA-I mRNA in CIN (I, II and III) and cervical squamous carcinoma was 70.0% (14/20) and 84.8% (39/46) respectively. Poorly differentiated cervical carcinomas had the highest HLA-I expression loss (90.6%). In contrast, HLA-I mRNA loss was seen in only 8% of cases of cervicitis. Moreover, it was found that high risk HPV 16 infection was strongly correlated with the loss HLA-I mRNA expression (r = 0.803, P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The loss of HLA-I gene expression is strongly correlated with HPV-16 infection, and may serve as a biomarker of cervical cancer progression in Uighur women.</p>
