Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common neoplasm of the equine stomach. However, the mechanisms underlying malignant transformation are unknown. As papillomavirus-2 (EcPV-2) is a likely cause of some genital SCCs, we hypothesized that EcPV-2 is associated with a subset of equine gastric SCCs. To this aim, we performed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in situ hybridization (ISH) for EcPV-2 E6/ E7 oncogenes on 11 gastric SCCs and on gastric samples from 15 control horses with no SCC. PCR for EcPV-2 was positive in 7/11 (64%) gastric SCCs; non-SCC gastric samples were all negative. Intense hybridization signals for EcPV-2 E6/E7 nucleic acid were detected by ISH within tumor cells in 5/11 (45%) gastric SCCs, including distant metastases. No hybridization signals were detected within any of the non-SCC gastric cases. This study provides support for a potential association between EcPV-2 infection and a subset of equine gastric SCC.
鳞状细胞癌（SCC）是马胃最常见的肿瘤。然而，恶性转化的潜在机制尚不清楚。由于乳头瘤病毒2型（EcPV-2）可能是某些生殖器SCC的病因，我们推测EcPV-2与一部分马胃SCC有关。为此，我们对11例胃SCC以及15例无SCC的对照马的胃样本进行了EcPV-2 E6/E7癌基因的聚合酶链反应（PCR）和原位杂交（ISH）。11例胃SCC中有7例（64%）EcPV-2 PCR呈阳性；非SCC胃样本均为阴性。通过ISH在5/11（45%）的胃SCC肿瘤细胞中检测到EcPV-2 E6/E7核酸的强烈杂交信号，包括远处转移灶。在任何非SCC胃病例中均未检测到杂交信号。本研究为EcPV-2感染与一部分马胃SCC之间的潜在关联提供了支持。
