The HPV infection in men (HIM) study examines the natural history of genital HPV infection in men. Genotyping methods used in this study identify 37 α-HPV types; however, the viral type could not be identified in approximately 22% of male genital specimens that were HPV PCR positive. Our aim was to genotype HPV-unclassified specimens by sequencing PGMY09/11, GP5+/6+ or FAP59/64 PCR products. Using this approach we were able to detect 86 unique HPV types among 508 of 931 specimens analyzed. We report for the first time the presence of a broad range of α-, β- and γ-HPV at the male genitals.
男性人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染研究(HIM 研究)旨在探究男性生殖器 HPV 感染的自然史。本研究采用的基因分型方法可鉴定 37 种 α-HPV 型别;然而,在 HPV PCR 阳性的大约 22%男性生殖器标本中,无法鉴定 HPV 病毒型别。我们的目的是通过测序 PGMY09/11、GP5+/6+或 FAP59/64 PCR 产物对 HPV 未分类标本进行基因分型。通过该方法,我们在分析的 931 个标本中的 508 个标本中检测到了 86 种 HPV 独特型别。我们首次报道了在男性生殖器存在广泛的 α-、β-和 γ-HPV 型别。
