Viral infections contribute to approximately 12% of cancers worldwide, with the vast majority occurring in developing countries and areas. Two DNA viruses, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and human papillomavirus (HPV), are associated with 38% of all virus-associated cancers. The probability of one patient infected with these two distinct types of viruses is increasing. Here, we summarize the co-infection of EBV and HPV in human malignancies and address the possible mechanisms for the co-infection of EBV and HPV during tumorigenesis.
在全球范围内,病毒感染导致约12%的癌症发生,其中绝大多数发生在发展中国家和地区。两种DNA病毒,即爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒(EBV)和人乳头瘤病毒(HPV),与所有病毒相关癌症中的38%有关。一名患者感染这两种不同类型病毒的可能性正在增加。在此,我们总结了EBV和HPV在人类恶性肿瘤中的共同感染情况,并探讨了肿瘤发生过程中EBV和HPV共同感染的可能机制。
