Abstract:Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is strongly associated with cervical cancer (CC). Genomic alterations caused by viral infection and subsequent dysregulation of cellular metabolism under hypoxic conditions could influence the response to treatment. We studied a possible influence of IGF-1Rβ, hTERT, HIF1α, GLUT1 protein expression, HPV species presence and relevant clinical parameters on the response to treatment. In 21 patients, HPV infection and protein expression were detected using GP5+/GP6+PCR-RLB and … Show more
