  • 摘要:DNA extracted from squamous cell carcinomas from patients with the chronic wart disease syndrome, epidermodysplasia verruciformis, was analyzed for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV)-specific DNA sequences by Southern blot hybridization analysis. Employing an HPV probe obtained by molecular cloning of viral DNA purified from benign warts from these patients, we have unequivocally identified HPV-specific nucleotide sequences in squamous cell carcinomas from these patients. Restriction endonuclease mapping indicated that the DNA present in the carcinomas was of the same type (type 5) as that found in the benign tumors from these patients and was present as unintegrated, free viral DNA. Moreover, we have demonstrated the presence of HPV-5 DNA in a subcutaneous metastatic tumor from one of these patients. This latter observation essentially eliminates the possibility that the HPV-5 DNA present in the malignant tumors in these patients resulted from cross-contamination from an adjacent benign warty lesion. In addition to wild-type HPV-5 DNA, both the primary and metastatic carcinomas analyzed also contained an HPV-5 DNA species lacking approximately 20% of the HPV-5 DNA genome. These subgenomic forms of HPV-5 DNA could not be detected in benign papillomas from these patients.
