Correlation of adenoassociated virus type 2 and high-risk human papillomavirus type 16 and 18 infection in the cervix of Korean women / 대한산부인과학회지

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Previous studies were showed that adenoassocited virus (AAV) infection was had negative effects on human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and that the cervical cancer cell growth is inhibited by AAV infection. We detected of AAV 2 and high-risk HPV infection and researched correlation with AAV 2 and HPV in cervical cell. METHODS: Cell of normal cervix (49 persons), infected HPV cervix (45 persons), cervical intraepithelial neoplasm (CIN) I (31 persons), II (20 persons), III (35 persons), and invasive cancer (30 persons) were investigated by PCR using AAV-2 and HPV type 16 and 18 specific primers. RESULTS: AAV 2 was detected in 8 out of 49 normal cervix (16.3%), 2 out of 45 infected HPV cervix (4.4%), 3 out of 31 CIN I (9.7%), 4 out of 20 CIN II (20%), 8 out of 35 CIN III (22.8%), and 3 out of 30 invasive cervical cancer cases (30%). However, HPV 16 was detected in 5 out of 49 normal cervix (10.2%), 20 out of 45 infected HPV cervix (44.4%), 13 out of 31 CIN I (42%), 11 out of 20 CIN II (55%), 19 out of 35 CIN III (54.3%), and 21 out of 30 invasive cervical cancer cases (70%). HPV 18 was detected in 6 out of 49 normal cervix (12.2%), 18 out of 45 infected HPV cervix (40%), 16 out of 31 CIN I (51.6%), 10 out of 20 CIN II (50%), 22 out of 35 CIN III (62.8%), and 13 out of 30 invasive cervical cancer cases (43.3%). CONCLUSION: AAV 2 was detected in normal and infected HPV cervix, CIN (I, II, III) and invasive cervical cancer. As compared to normal, CIN I and CIN II, suggesting significant correlation between AAV 2 and HPV type 16. Further, researches continue to be done relationship to AAV 2 and HPV infection in cervix.
