Human papillomavirus detected in female breast carcinomas in Japan

Abstract: To investigate the aetiological role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in breast cancer, we examined the presence, genotype, viral load, and physical status of HPV in 124 Japanese female patients with breast carcinoma. Human papillomavirus presence was examined by PCR using SPF10 primers, and primer sets targeting the E6 region of HPV-16, -18, and -33. The INNO-LiPA HPV genotyping kit was used to determine genotype. Human papillomavirus DNA was detected in 26 (21%) breast carcinomas. The most frequently detected H… Show more

“…However, there are studies evaluating the controversial presence of Human papillomavirus in breast lesions and the reported prevalence of HPV infection in breast cancer shows a great variation worldwide. Demographic features, genetic backgrounds, numbers of samples tested, methodological differences, low viral loads and the sensitivity of methods used, may be attributed to the difference of HPV prevalence in breast carcinomas in different reports (Khan et al, 2008). Still, there is insufficient data about the role of HPV in breast cancer.…”

“…The controversy surrounding the role of HPV in breast cancer may be because of the difficulty that has been encountered in detecting the virus in breast specimens, in contrast to the relative ease of detection in cervical cancers (Lindel et al, 2007;Khan et al, 2008). Indeed, in a previous study from our group, we demonstrated that it was necessary to use SYBR Green I (Molecular Probes, Carlsbad, CA, USA) for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detection of virus in breast cancer in DNA extracted from breast tissue (Kan et al, 2005).…”

“…Previous studies have demonstrated the presence of HPV high-risk types 16, 18 and 33 in breast cancer specimens from diverse populations around the world: Italy, Norway, China, Japan, USA, Austria, Brazil, Australia, Taiwan, Turkey, Greece, Korea, Mexico, Hungary and Syria (Lonardo et al, 1992;Hennig et al, 1999;Yu et al, 1999;Liu et al, 2001;Damin et al, 2004;Widschwendter et al, 2004;de Villiers et al, 2005;Kan et al, 2005;Tsai et al, 2005;Gumus et al, 2006;Kroupis et al, 2006;Lawson et al, 2006;Choi et al, 2007;Akil et al, 2008;Khan et al, 2008;Kulka et al, 2008;MendizabalRuiz et al, 2009). The prevalence of HPV positive breast cancer in these studies was reported to vary from 4% in Mexican to 86% in American women.…”

“…En la paciente con patología benigna infectada por el VPH se identificó el genotipo 33, de alto riesgo oncogénico. Estos genotipos identificados coinciden con los reportados en el resto del mundo, donde el genotipo de alto riesgo oncogénico más frecuentemente detectado es el 16, en un 20 a un 90% de los casos 21,35 . Agrupando los genotipos virales según su riesgo oncogé-nico, obtuvimos que el 28.57% de las pacientes con cáncer de mama presentó infección única por genotipos de alto y bajo riesgo, respectivamente, y el 42.90% de las pacientes positivas para VPH presentó coinfección por ambos grupos de genotipos.…”
