The result showed that the infection rates of HSV2 in the samples of cervical cancer.chronic cervicitis and normal epithelial cells were 1 4. 41 %(16/111). 27.94%( 19/68) and 25.58% ( 11/43),respectively. It was implied that early stages carcinogenesis of cervical epithelial cells might be correlated with the HSV2 infection.Sixteen HSV 2 positive samples of cervical carcinomas were also examined for the presence of the sequences homologous to human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6B/11. 16 and 18 DNA using dot blot hybridization (Tm17℃). The result indicated that 13 out of 16 were HPV 16 DNA hybridization positive accounting for 81. 2% of all HSV-2 positive samples and none of them were positive for HPV type 6B/11 and 18. The result indicated that double infection of HSV 2 and HPV16 in the same cervical carcinoma tissues may provide a strong evidence of the viral synergistic interaction in the induction of female cervical展开更多

One hundred and eleven cervical cancer biopsies taken from Beijing area and Xiangyuan county in Shanxi province of China were examined for the presence of DNA sequences of HPV, HSV-2 and EBV by means of Dot blot hybridization. The experiment results showed that the total infectious rates of HPV, HSV-2 and EBV were 71.17% (79/111), 14.44%(16/111) and 15.63% (15/96), respectively. Seventy-nine samples positive for HPV were further analysed for the viral types distribution, the result indicated that the positive specimens of HPV type 16 accounted for 72.15%, otherwise, the biopsies positive for HPV type 18and 6B/11 only accounted for 16-46% and 11.39%,respectively. The data suggested that HPV infection,especially HPV type 16, may play an important role in the development of cervical carcinomas- 16 specimens positive for HSV-2 were examined for HPV DNAsequences and the result uncovered that 13 out of them were HPV16 positive (81.25%), 11 samples containing EBV genomes were also examined for HPV DNA sequences and the result indicated that 9 of 11 were detectable for HPV DNA. The experiment results proved a direct evtidence of multi-virus infection in cervix and of the synergistic interaction among viruses in the process of cervical epithelial carcinogenesis.Comparing of the viruses' infection of two areas, the frequencies of HPV infection in Beijing and Xiangyuan areas were 72.84% (59/ 81) and 66.67% (20/30) , the infectious rates of HSV-2 in the two areas were 8.64%(7/81) and 30% (9/30) (P<0.05), the rates of EBV infection in the two areas were 12.5% (10/80) and 31.25% (5/16)(0.1>P>0.05). The results proved another strong evidence that the high incidence of cervical cancer in Xiangyuan county may be closely correlated with multiviruses infection and with multi-virus synergistic interaction.展开更多

The recent studies revealed the striking association of the Infection of EBV with the development of human epithelial tumors. 43 specimens of normal exfoliated cervical epithelial cells, 47 biopsies of chronic cervlcitis and 80 tissue samples of cervical carcinomas were tested for the presences of EBV W fragments by using dot blot hybridization method. The results showed that the detectable rates of EBV DNA sequences In the normal exfoliated epithelium, the chronic cervlcitis and cervical carcinomas were 44.16%, 12.77% and 13.75%, respectively. Eleven EBV positive DNA samples from cervical cancers were also examined for the presence of HPV DNA. The result showed 9 out of 11 were HPV DNA positive, the cultanious infectious rate of both viruses was about 81.81%.In this paper, the EBV genomes existed In the part of biopsies of cervical carcinomas were first reported. The results Implied that the development of cervical cancer might be associated with asymptomatic EBV Infection In early stage and might be the result from the synergistic carcinogenesis of EBV with other cervical oncovinises, especially with HPV.展开更多
