  6. 14. Human papillomavirus infection in healthy youth and in hypopharyngeal cancer

    Author : Nathalie Hou Grün; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to follow the prevalence of human papillomavirus in the oral cavity and in the cervix in youth during the period of 2008-2015, a period when HPV vaccination was gradually introduced to young girls in Sweden. In addition, we explored the prevalence of HPV in hypopharyngeal cancer during the period 2000-2012 on the basis that there has been an epidemic of HPV positive tonsillar and base of tongue cancer, which arise in locations with close physiological proximity to the hypopharynx.

    Abstract : Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women worldwide. Persistent HPV has been identified as a main risk factor in cervical cancer development. Oncoproteins E6 and E7 of highrisk HPV interact with cellular proteins, subverting cell cycle checkpoint, inducing carcinogenesis. READ MORE
