“…Among HPV genotypes detected, 85% were high-risk HPV. The most frequently detected genotype in the present study was HPV-16, which accounted for 55% of HPV-positive cases, as was also the case in our previous study conducted in other Latin-American countries, including Mexico, Colombia, and Chile (Castillo et al, 2006). Our findings are also in accordance with those shown in a review published by Syrjänen (2002), where HPV was positive in 25% of SQCs, 19% of SCCs, and 8% of ACs.…”

“…In the case of the lung, the association of HPV-18 with ACs was shown by a study of nonsmoking Taiwanese women (Cheng et al, 2001). A Latin-American study also detected HPV-18 only in lung ACs (Castillo et al, 2006). A recent meta-analysis by Chen et al (2004) showed that 9 -42% of pulmonary ACs among Asians were HPV positive.…”

“…A large sample investigation reported that HPV DNA infection rate was 21.7% in 2468 lung carcinomas (11). HPV infection is considered a cocarcinogen of lung cancer and its contribution to pathogenesis has been evaluated (12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18). However, even in Asian populations, the prevalence discrepancy of HPV infection in lung cancer patients was also found with the geographic variations and tumor types.…”

“…In the majority of carcinomas associated with high-risk HPV and some advanced HPV-associated precancerous lesions, the whole viral genome or its fragment is integrated into the chromosomal DNA of the host cell whereas the HPV genome was retained as episomal molecules in early dysplastic low-grade lesions (17). Although the mechanism involved in switching from episomal state to viral integration was yet unclear, it was suspected that methylation pattern on HPV genome was different in episomal and integrated states.…”
