A high prevalence of human papillomavirus 16 and 18 co-infections in cervical biopsies from southern Brazil

Abstract: HPV types 16 and 18 were studied in paraffin-fixed cervical biopsy collected in southern Brazil. HPV 16, HPV 18 and co-infection HPV 16/18 were identified in 10/57 (17.5%), 4/57 (7%) and in 43/57 (75.4%) samples, respectively. Southern Brazil has one of the highest prevalence rates of HPV 16/18 reported.

“…Most importantly, although HPVs 16 and 18 are the most frequently observed high-risk HPVs globally and were the focus of studies conducted in the GCC and MENA regions, nevertheless, based on our findings on HPV genotyping in this region, they do not appear to be the most prevalent types [ 32 , 50 , 65 ]. Globally, numerous reports from France [ 66 ], Brazil [ 67 ], and Cuba [ 40 ] have shown HPV types 16 and 18 to be the most oncogenic HPVs associated with the pathogenesis of CRC. However, the frequent observation of these two HPVs in Western countries cannot be extrapolated to other ethnic populations.…”

“…A população incluída foi de 1.632 amostras/pacientes, variando entre n = 25 e n = 445. A faixa etária das pacientes foi de 14 a 60 anos, sendo que em três artigos constava somente a informação da idade média da população estudada 12,13,14 Dois autores relataram o uso de citologia convencional 17,18 ; quatro, de citologia convencional e em meio líquido 13,15,16,19 ; e em dois estudos não foi possível identificar o tipo de técnica citológica empregada. Três artigos incluíram o uso do esfregaço cervical/colpocitologia/ Papanicolau 13,15,17 ; dois utilizaram biópsia cervical 14,19 ; um aplicou a combinação de esfregaço cervical + colposcopia 16 ; um empregou o exame citopatológico cervical + biópsia cervical 18 ;…”

“…The interest of adding more antigens E6 HPV16 , E6 HPV18, and E7 HPV18 antigens was essentially to broaden the antigen/epitope repertoire with a short‐term perspective of achieving a clinical trial in patients, with polymorphic HLA, infected by HPV16 or HPV18. It is also noteworthy that patients with HPV16 and HPV18 co‐infection have been reported (Jesus et al , 2018 ).…”
