Baseline human papillomavirus infection, high vaginal parity, and their interaction on cervical cancer risks after a follow-up of more than 10 years

Abstract: A causal-pie modeling based on a women cohort in Taiwan successfully disentangles the roles of virus factors and reproductive factors at study entry, independently or interactively, on subsequent cervical cancer risk.

“…Results from a previous study has shown associations between HPV infection with high parity in developing cervical cancer. 11 Multiparity may increase the risk for maintaining transformation zone in the ectocervical region of the cervix. There was also evidence on the increased number of squamous metaplasia during pregnancy.…”

“…HPV particles are non-enveloped and assume an icosahedral structure, with a diameter of 55 nm and enclose an 8 kb long double-stranded DNA (Chung et al 2010, Doorbar et al 2015. Clinical, molecular and epidemiological investigations have demonstrated that CC is caused by persistent infection with high-risk HPV, where part of the viral DNA sequence becomes integrated into the host genome (Brake & Lambert 2005, Chung et al 2008, Marks et al 2011, Liao et al 2012. The peak time for a woman to acquire an HPV infection is during the sexually active phase of life (http://www.…”

“…Currently, with the epidemiological evidence linking multi-parity and oral contraceptive usage to an increase in CC risk, oestrogens have been speculated to be involved in the development of cervical carcinogenesis (Moreno et al 2002, Muñoz et al 2002, Roura et al 2016. Nevertheless, such carcinogenic transformations due to oestrogens are not physiological and involve a synergistic combination with infection of high-risk human papilloma virus (HPV) as the strongest factor (Brake & Lambert 2005, Chung et al 2008, Marks et al 2011, Liao et al 2012. The successful initiation of HPV-dependent carcinogenesis begins with the infection of HPV in episomal form, initiating the transcription of viral gene products, followed by subsequent genomic integration of HPV oncogenes into the host genome (Senapati et al 2016).…”

“…Hence, it is postulated that both HPV and estradiol enhance the effects of each other, either directly through functional EREs (Estrogen responsive elements) in the viral genome or indirectly encourage uncontrolled cellular proliferation and enhancing malignant proliferation [53]. This synergistic combination between estrogen and HPV is considered as the strongest factor in such carcinogenic transformations [50,[54][55][56][57].…”
