Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is the major etiologic agent of cervical carcinoma. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of HPV infection and genotype distribution in cervical swabs from 2,234 Turkish and 357 Albanian women with similar lifestyles from two different countries.
HPV detection and typing were performed by type specific multiplex fluorescent PCR and fragments were directly genotyped by high resolution fluorescence capillary electrophoresis.
The most common type was HPV 16 and the second one was HPV 6 for both country. The third common type was 39 and 18 for Turkish and Albanian women, respectively.
When we compare our results with other studies, there are differences between the frequency and order of the HPV genotypes detected at the second and subsequent frequencies. This may due to differences in the quality and type of samples analyzed, as well as the HPV detection methods.
人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染是宫颈癌的主要病因。本研究旨在确定来自两个不同国家、生活方式相似的2234名土耳其女性和357名阿尔巴尼亚女性宫颈拭子中HPV感染的患病率及基因型分布。
采用型特异性多重荧光PCR进行HPV检测和分型,并通过高分辨率荧光毛细管电泳直接对片段进行基因分型。
两个国家最常见的类型均为HPV 16,第二常见的类型均为HPV 6。土耳其女性中第三常见的类型为HPV 39,阿尔巴尼亚女性中第三常见的类型为HPV 18。
当我们将我们的结果与其他研究进行比较时,在第二及后续频率检测到的HPV基因型的频率和顺序存在差异。这可能是由于所分析样本的质量和类型以及HPV检测方法的差异所致。
