Genomic instability is a hallmark of most human cancers including high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated anogenital neoplasia. The two HPV-encoded oncoproteins, E6 and E7, can independently induce chromosomal abnormalities. We summarize the current state of knowledge concerning HPV-induced genomic instability and discuss its significance in the context of human carcinogenesis.
基因组不稳定是大多数人类癌症的一个标志,包括高危型人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)相关的肛门生殖器肿瘤形成。两种由HPV编码的癌蛋白E6和E7可独立诱导染色体异常。我们总结了关于HPV诱导基因组不稳定的当前知识状态,并在人类致癌作用的背景下讨论其意义。
