Roles of Human Papillomaviruses and p16 in Oral Cancer

Abstract: Head and neck cancer, including oral cancer, is the sixth most common cancer in humans worldwide. More than 90% of oral cancers are of squamous cell carcinoma type. Recent studies have shown a strong relationship between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and head and neck cancer, especially oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Moreover, the incidence of HPV-related OSCC appears to be on the rise while HPV-unrelated OSCC tends to have stabilized in the past d… Show more

“…(2015)[28] reported the expression of p16 in 21.6% of the patients with OSCC. They also reported a significant association ( P < 0.05) between HPV DNA and p16 with odds ratio of 20 at 95% CI (1.9–211.8).…”

“…Annually, more than 650,000 patients worldwide are diagnosed with HNSCC [1]. Cancer of the oral cavity accounts for 2-3 % of all malignancies [2], is ranked as the fifth most common type of cancer [3], and includes cancers of labial and buccal mucosa, anterior two-thirds of tongue, floor of the mouth, gingiva, alveolus, and hard palate. Oral cancer is considered equivalent to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), because the latter encompasses more than 90 % of cases [4], and approximately, 300,000 new cases are diagnosed annually worldwide [5].…”

“…Una vez que el virus entra a la célula se forman dos proteínas: e6 y e7. La e6 se une a la ubiquitina celular, unión que resulta en la ubiquitinización de p53 con la subsecuente degradación proteolítica [4,[7][8][9]. Se conocen al menos 200 subtipos de vph, y se dividen en virus de bajo y alto riesgo, tal como se muestra en la tabla 1 [10][11][12].…”
