Serologic response to human papillomavirus type 16 virus-like particles in Korean women with cervical precancerous and cancerous lesions

Abstract: The aim of the study was to investigate the seroprevalence to HPV type 16 in Korean women with precancerous and cancerous lesions of the uterine cervix. The cases were 173 Korean women of whom 130 had high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CIN), 43 cervical carcinomas and the control group was 106 women showing normal cervical cytology. Serologic assays were performed using HPV-16 VLPs as antigen in an ELISA. Specific antibodies against HPV-16 VLP were detected in 59.2% (77/130) of the patients with h… Show more

“…Overall, as shown in Table , our findings for anti‐HPV E6, E7, and L1 antibodies are consistent with previous observations in terms of increased seroprevalence in cervical lesions . Our results also show that the frequencies of antibodies against HPV E6 and E7 (in types 16 and 18) are higher in cervical cancer than in CIN stages.…”

“…Overall, as shown in Table S2, our findings for anti-HPV E6, E7, and L1 antibodies are consistent with previous observations in terms of increased seroprevalence in cervical lesions. [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] Our results also show that the frequencies of antibodies against HPV E6 and E7 (in types 16 and 18) are higher in cervical cancer than in CIN stages. Similar trends in the seroprevalence of antibodies against HPV E6 and E7 antigen in Korean women have been reported previously.…”
