Human Papillomavirus Infections in Nonmelanoma Skin Cancers From Renal Transplant Recipients and Nonimmunosuppressed Patients

Abstract: The presence of HPV DNA in a large percentage of specimens of nonmelanoma carcinomas of the skin from immunosuppressed patients, as well as from nonimmmunosuppressed patients, renders a papillomavirus infection as a possible factor in the etiology of this disease.

“…The cancers in EV individuals predominantly occur at body sites exposed to sunlight, pointing to a role for ultra violet (UV) radiation in the development of the disease (Orth et al, 1979). In addition to EV, a role for HPVs has also been postulated in the development of non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC) in both immunocompetent and immunocompromised individuals, such as organ transplant recipients (Jablonska, 1990;Purdie et al, 1993;de Jong-Tieben et al, 1995;Shamanin et al, 1996;Hop¯et al, 1997;Surentheran et al, 1998). Interestingly, these individuals also often develop NMSC at UV-exposed sites (reviewed in Proby et al, 1996).…”

“…For these experiments we chose three di erent HPV types: the EVassociated HPV5 (group B1); a low risk cutaneous type, HPV10 (group A2); and HPV77, a group A2 type related to HPV10 which was originally identi®ed in both warts and SCCs of a renal transplant recipient (Shamanin et al, 1994;Delius et al, 1998). The E6 gene from each of the viruses was ampli®ed by PCR and subcloned into the expression vector pcDNA3 and were veri®ed by DNA sequencing.…”

“…The possible misclassification by actinic lesions can be ruled out; we should take into account that sporadic warts (the only ones that cannot be misclassified because actinic lesions do not disappear) are associated with the risk of LC. Furthermore, there is evidence of a causal relation in cervix cancer and a high prevalence of viral infection in the tumour in the case of oral cancer, even in nonmelanoma skin cancer (Shamanin et al, 1996).…”

“…They vary in tissue distribution, oncogenic potential and association with anatomically and histologically distinct diseases (zur Hausen, 1996). Based on the ability to infect the skin or mucosa of the anogenital and respiratory tracts, the HPVs fall into two groups, cutaneous and mucosal genotypes (de Villiers, 1997).…”
