Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of high-risk oncogenic human papillomaviruses (HPVs) in malignant lesions from Hong Kong Chinese women with carcinomas of the upper genital tract. METHODS:The presence of high-risk HPVs in 55 cases of endometrial adenocarcinomas and 60 cases of primary epithelial ovarian cancers was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using consensus primers complementary to late 1 (L1) gene of the genital HPVs. Amplified PCR products were verified and typed by Southern blot analysis using (32)P-labeled DNA probes prepared from cloned HPV-16 and -18 plasmids. To confirm the presence of high-risk HPV types in the tumor tissues, PCR amplification using HPV type 16- and 18-specific primers for part of the E6 gene were also carried out. RESULTS:While HPV-18 was not detected, HPV-16 DNA sequences were identified in 5 (9.1%) of the 55 studied endometrial carcinoma samples. Of the 5 HPV-16-positive cases, there were 4 stage I, and 1 stage II endometrial cancer. In addition, 6 (10%) of the 60 epithelial ovarian carcinomas were positive for high-risk HPVs, which included 5 cases with HPV-16 and 1 case with HPV-18. Clinical staging revealed that 5 of the 6 HPV-positive cases were stage I and the remaining case was stage III ovarian cancer. Histology of the 6 HPV-positive cases showed that there were 1 case of clear-cell adenocarcinoma, 1 case of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma, and 4 cases of mucinous tumor of borderline malignancy. No other HPV types were detected. CONCLUSION:High-risk HPV was detected in approximately 10% of the tumor samples from women with upper genital tract carcinomas. As compared to the high positive rate of HPV infections in cervical cancer, it appears that HPV infection plays a relatively minor role in the pathogenesis of endometrial and ovarian carcinomas.
