- HPV-11 variability, persistence and progression to genital warts in men: the HIM study(2017) FLORES-DIAZ, Ema; SEREDAY, Karen A.; FERREIRA, Silvaneide; SIRAK, Bradley; SOBRINHO, Joao Simao; BAGGIO, Maria Luiza; GALAN, Lenice; SILVA, Roberto C.; LAZCANO-PONCE, Eduardo; GIULIANO, Anna R.; VILLA, Luisa L.; SICHERO, LauraHPV-11 and HPV-6 are the etiological agents of about 90% of genital warts (GWs). The intra-typic variability of HPV-11 and its association with infection persistence and GW development remains undetermined. Here, HPV infection in men (HIM) participants who had an HPV-11 genital swab and/or GW, preceded or not by a normal skin genital swab were analysed. Genomic variants were characterized by PCR-sequencing and classified within lineages (A, B) and sublineages (A1, A2, A3, A4). HPV-11 A2 variants were the most frequently detected in the genital swab samples from controls and in both genital swabs and GW samples from cases. The same HPV-11 variant was detected in the GW sample and its preceding genital swab. There was a lack of association between any particular HPV-11 variant and the increased risk for GW development.
- HPV-6 Molecular Variants Association With the Development of Genital Warts in Men: The HIM Study(2017) FLORES-DIAZ, Ema; SEREDAY, Karen A.; FERREIRA, Silvaneide; SIRAK, Bradley; SOBRINHO, Joao Simao; BAGGIO, Maria Luiza; GALAN, Lenice; SILVA, Roberto C.; LAZCANO-PONCE, Eduardo; GIULIANO, Anna R.; VILLA, Luisa L.; SICHERO, LauraBackground. Human papillomavirus type 6 (HPV-6) and HPV-11 are the etiological agents of approximately 90% of genital warts (GWs). The impact of HPV-6 genetic heterogeneity on persistence and progression to GWs remains undetermined. Methods. HPV Infection in Men (HIM) Study participants who had HPV-6 genital swabs and/or GWs preceded by a viable normal genital swab were analyzed. Variants characterization was performed by polymerase chain reaction sequencing and samples classified within lineages (A, B) and sublineages (B1, B2, B3, B4, B5). Country-and age-specific analyses were conducted for individual variants; odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the risk of GWs according to HPV-6 variants were calculated. Results. B3 variants were most prevalent. HPV-6 variants distribution differed between countries and case status. HPV-6 B1 variants prevalence was increased in GWs and genital swabs of cases compared to controls. There was difference in B1 and B3 variants detection in GW and the preceding genital swab. We observed significant association of HPV-6 B1 variants detection with GW development. Conclusions. HPV-6 B1 variants are more prevalent in genital swabs that precede GW development, and confer an increased risk for GW. Further research is warranted to understand the possible involvement of B1 variants in the progression to clinically relevant lesions.
