Abstract
Viral associated trichodysplasia spinulosa (VATS) is a rare cutaneous eruption characterized by folliculocentric papules, keratin spicules, and alopecia associated with trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated polyomavirus (TSPyV) infection. We report a case of a 6-year-old male child who presented with a generalized papular eruption during chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The papules were tested for human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and TSPyV using PCR and gene sequencing studies. The lesions were positive for TSPyV by PCR combined with sequencing and showed high copy number with real-time PCR, and beta-papillomavirus was identified by PCR and sequencing. Immunohistochemistry revealed inner root sheath keratinocytes expressing nuclear HPV L1 capsid antigen. To our knowledge, this is the first case of concomitant productive HPV and TSPyV infection in a VATS-affected patient. The presence of HPV may be coincidental, however, further studies are needed to establish whether specific HPV genotypes influence the development of abnormal inner root sheath trichohyalin granules found in VATS.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a necessary factor in the cervical cancer development. Also after treatment for cervical dysplasia, HPV can be present and promote the recurrence of cervical disease. In the present study, the aim was to perform a long-term follow-up on the ability of HPV testing with genotyping, as compared with cytology, to predict recurrence of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment with loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) conization. Cervical samples for HPV DNA testing and cytological analysis were obtained from 178 women with abnormal smears referred for treatment with LEEP conization. These women were scheduled for HPV DNA testing and Pap smears before and 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after treatment. Three years after treatment 3.1% (N = 4) of women were still persistently HPV-positive with the same type as had been detected at treatment. Recurrent or residual cervical intraepithelial neoplasia II+ in histopathology was found among 9 (5.1%) women during follow-up. All of these women had type-specific HPV-persistence (sensitivity 100% [95% CI 63-100%] and specificity 94.7% [89.8-97.4%]), but only 7/9 had abnormal cytology (sensitivity 77.8% [40.2-96.1%] and specificity 94.7% [89.8-97.4%]). No recurrent or residual disease was found among women with any other patterns of HPV positivity (e.g., type change or fluctuating positivity) (sensitivity 0% [95% CI 0-37.1%] and specificity 80.5% [73.5-86.0%]). In conclusion, only type-specific HPV persistence predicted recurrent or residual disease, and HPV genotyping appears useful to improve the specificity when using HPV testing in post-treatment follow-up.

Abstract
Pools of frozen biopsies from patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (n=29) actinic keratosis (AK) (n=31), keratoacanthoma (n=91) and swab samples from 84 SCCs and 91 AKs were analysed with an extended HPV general primer PCR and high-throughput sequencing of amplimers. We found 273 different HPV isolates (87 known HPV types, 139 previously known HPV sequences (putative types) and 47 sequences from novel putative HPV types). Among the new sequences, five clustered in genus Betapapillomavirus and 42 in genus Gammapapillomavirus. Resequencing of the three pools between 21 to 70 times resulted in the detection of 283 different known or putative HPV types, with 156 different sequences found in only one of the pools. Type-specific PCRs for 37 putative types from an additional 296 patients found only two of these putative types. In conclusion, skin lesions contain a large diversity of HPV types, but most appeared to be rare infections.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a necessary cause of cervical cancer and cervical dysplasia. Accurate and sensitive genotyping of multiple oncogenic HPVs is essential for a multitude of both clinical and research uses. We developed a modified general primer (MGP) PCR system with five forward and five reverse consensus primers. The MGP system was compared to the classical HPV general primer system GP5+/6+ using a proficiency panel with HPV plasmid dilutions as well as cervical samples from 592 women with low-grade cytological abnormalities. The reference method (GP5+/6+) had the desirable high sensitivity (five copies/PCR) for five oncogenic HPV types (HPV type 16 [HPV-16], HPV-18, HPV-56, HPV-59, and HPV-66). The MGP system was able to detect all 14 oncogenic HPV types at five copies/PCR. In the clinical samples, the MGP system detected a significantly higher proportion of women with more than two concomitant HPV infections than did the GP5+/6+ system (102/592 women compared to 42/592 women). MGP detected a significantly greater number of infections with HPV-16, -18, -31, -33, -35, -39, -42, -43, -45, -51, -52, -56, -58, and -70 than did GP5+/6+. In summary, the MGP system primers allow a more sensitive amplification of most of the HPV types that are established as oncogenic and had an improved ability to detect multiple concomitant HPV infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human papilloma virus (HPV) is the major cause of cervical cancer. Use of HPV genotyping in cervical screening programs and for monitoring the effectiveness of HPV vaccination programs requires access to economical, high-throughput technology. METHODS We used the Sequenom MassARRAY platform to develop a high-throughput mass spectrometric (MS) method for detecting 14 specific oncogenic HPV genotypes in multiplex PCR products. We compared results from 532 cervical cell samples to the comparison method, reverse dot blot hybridization (RDBH). RESULTS The MS method detected all samples found positive by RDBH. In addition, the MS method identified 5 cases of cervical disease (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia of grade I or higher) that RDBH analysis had missed. Discrepancies in specific genotypes were noted in 20 samples, all positive by MS, with an overall concordance of kappa = 0.945. CONCLUSIONS The MS high-throughput method, with a processing capacity of 10 x 384 samples within 2 working days and at a consumables cost of about US$2 per sample, performed as well as or better than the comparison method.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Test of human papillomavirus (HPV) is a useful adjunctive tool of Pap smear to screen cervical cancer. We have developed a novel HPV genotyping DNA chip arrayed by multiple oligonucleotide probes of both L1 and E6/E7 gene sequence of 42 types of anogenital HPV. METHODS Consensus PCR products of L1 and E6/E7 gene sequences of HPV are hybridized to arrayed probes on the HPV chip and HPV genotypes are identified by fluorescence scanner. We have comparatively analyzed the value of HPV DNA chip and DNA sequencing in 100 cervical cancer tissues. RESULTS Overall, 98 cervical cancer tissues were found to harbor DNA sequences of high-risk type HPVs, of which 88 (89.8%) were detected by PCR-sequencing of L1 alone, 98 (100%) by PCR-sequencing of both L1 and E6/E7, and 98 (100%) by HPV DNA chip, respectively. All of the genotypes of HPV detected on sequencing analysis were also found on DNA chip analysis. HPV DNA chip was superior to direct DNA sequencing in detection of mixed infection. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that HPV DNA chip analysis in the present study is highly accurate for detection and genotyping of HPV and may have potential value as a robust, high-throughput screening test of uterine cervix cancer.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the major cause of cervical cancer and its precursor, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), and HPV testing has therefore been proposed for improved triaging and follow-up of women treated for CIN. We compared two common HPV DNA detection tests (Hybrid Capture II [HCII] and PCR-enzyme immunosorbent assay (EIA) using the primers GP5+/GP6+ followed by HPV typing with reverse dot blot hybridization) for sensitivity and specificity for detection of CIN and of CIN recurrence after treatment. Two hundred and thirty-nine women referred to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Västerås, Sweden, were enrolled because of atypical Pap smears; 177 of these were later treated for dysplasia by conization or loop diathermy. Samples for HPV DNA testing were taken before and 4 to 6 months after treatment. There was substantial agreement between the HCII and PCR-EIA (kappa, 0.70 before treatment and 0.72 after treatment). The sensitivity for histopathologically confirmed CIN III was 100.0% for PCR-EIA and 95.6% for HCII. For patients with CIN II or worse (CIN II+), the sensitivities were 92.9% (PCR-EIA) and 91.8% (HCII). The specificities for CIN II+ in the pretreatment setting were 30.4% for PCR-EIA and 24.1% for HCII. After treatment, the sensitivities for CIN III in cytology were 100.0% by both methods, and for CIN II+, sensitivities were 80.0% by both methods. The specificities for CIN II+ in the posttreatment setting were 83.5% for PCR and 85.4% for HCII. In conclusion, the sensitivities of both PCR-EIA and HCII are high and almost equal, suggesting that both methods are suitable as tools for detection and posttreatment follow-up of CIN II-III.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) persistence is the major cause of cervical cancer, but most HPV infections will not persist and risk factors for HPV persistence are not well known. Chlamydia (C.) trachomatis infection seems to also be associated with cervical cancer. We investigated whether C. trachomatis infection is a risk factor for HPV persistence. In a cohort of 12,527 women participating in a population-based HPV screening trial in Sweden, 6,418 women completed testing for HPV DNA by general primer PCR and typing by reverse dot blot hybridization. On average 19 months later, 303 women that had been HPV-positive and had normal cytology at enrollment completed a new HPV test. Environmental exposures were assessed by an 87-item questionnaire. Previous sexually transmitted infections were also investigated by serology. At follow-up, 44% of the women were positive for the same type of HPV DNA as at enrollment. Persistence correlated with length of follow-up (p < 0.01) and condom use seemed to protect against HPV persistence (p < 0.05). The most significant risk factor for persistent presence of HPV DNA was self-reported history of previous C. trachomatis infection (relative risk in multivariate model = 2.09; 95% confidence interval = 1.05-4.18). We conclude that persistence of oncogenic HPV infections is more likely among women with a previous C. trachomatis infection.

Abstract
In order to examine a sensitive unbiased consensus PCR with routine sequencing for HPV typing, we analysed Danish male and female patients suspected of having an HPV infection. We used the well-characterised nested PCR setting with MY09/MY11 and GP5+/GP6+ primers, followed by routine cycle sequencing. Of 1283 clinical samples from female patients based on suspected HPV infection, we found 379 (29%) negatives and 894 (70%) positives. Samples containing >5000 HPV copies/ml were genotyped by sequencing. Of the 552 HPV genotyped samples from women >15 years of age, 398 were characterised as high-risk types and the remaining 154 as low-risk types. The most commonly found high-risk types were HPV-16, HPV-31, HPV-33, HPV-18, HPV-58, and HPV-52, and the most commonly found low-risk types were HPV-6, HPV-53 and HPV-11. In addition, we observed that other typing assays could not perform as sensitively or accurately as the nested PCR/cycle sequencing method used in this study. For instance, 87 out of 552 genotyped samples could not have been typed correctly in the Hybrid Capture II assay. Of these 87 samples, 46 (53%) were considered as high-risk types.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing can be used to identify women at risk of the development of cervical cancer. The cost-effectiveness of HPV screening is dependent on the type-specific HPV prevalence in the general population. The present study describes the prevalence and spectrum of high-risk HPV types found in a large real-life population-based HPV screening trial undertaken entirely within the cervical screening program offered to middle-aged Swedish women. Cervical brush samples from 6,123 women aged 32-38 years were analyzed using a general HPV primer (GP5+/6+) polymerase chain reaction-enzyme immunoassay (PCR-EIA) combined with reverse dot-blot hybridization for confirmation and HPV typing by a single assay. In this study, 6.8% (95% CI 6.2-7.5) (417/6,123) were confirmed as high-risk HPV positive. Infections with 13 different high-risk HPV types were detected, of which HPV 16 was the most prevalent type (2.1%; 128/6,123), followed by HPV 31 (1.1%; 67/6,123). Any one of the HPV types 18, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, or 66 was detected in 3.6% (223/6,123) of the women. Infection with two, three, and five types simultaneously was identified in 32, 5, and 1 women, respectively. The combination of PCR-EIA as a screening test and reverse dot-blot hybridization as a confirmatory test, was found to be readily applicable to a real-life population-based cervical screening. The type-specific HPV prevalence found support in previous modeling studies suggesting that HPV screening may be a favorable cervical screening strategy.

Abstract
In this study, we developed a simple and fast typing procedure for 37 mucosotropic human papillomavirus (HPV) types using a nonradioactive reverse line blotting (RLB) procedure for general primer (GP5+/6+) PCR products. This system has the advantages not only that in a simple format, up to 42 PCR products can be simultaneously typed per membrane per day, but also that after stripping, the membranes can be easily rehybridized at least 15 times without a loss of signal. RLB appeared highly specific, and its sensitivity was identical to that of conventional typing performed with type-specific oligonucleotide probes in an enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The performance of RLB typing was evaluated with samples of HPV-positive cervical scrapings (n = 196) and biopsies of cervical premalignant lesions (n = 100). The distribution of HPV genotypes detected in these samples was in line with the distribution expected on the basis of literature data. In addition, RLB and EIA typing procedures were compared for the typing of high-risk HPV types in GP5+/6+ PCR products of 210 cervical scrapings from high-risk HPV-positive women who participated in a population-based screening program. The typing procedures had an excellent overall agreement rate of 96.5% (kappa value, 0.77). RLB was successful in detecting multiple HPV infections as well as single infections. In conclusion, the GP5+/6+ PCR-RLB procedure appeared to be a reliable and simple approach that may be of great value for large epidemiological studies, population-based cervical cancer screening programs, and vaccination trials that require high-throughput HPV typing.

Abstract
As human papillomavirus infection is now known to be a necessary risk factor for at least 95% of cervical cancers, the medical community has a responsibility to assess and evaluate how this knowledge should best be used for the prevention of cervical cancer. Organized screening strategies combining cytological screening with human papillomavirus testing in older age groups could theoretically be more sensitive than current screening programmes in reducing the incidence of cervical cancer. If it is possible safely to extend the screening interval in human papillomavirus-negative women, such programmes could also both be more effective and more cost-efficient. Although some modelling studies have indicated that this could indeed be the case, evidence from clinical trials evaluating the long-term protective effect of primary human papillomavirus screening is still lacking. The key issues on the research agenda for primary human papillomavirus screening are reviewed.

Abstract
This study describes a nonisotopic polymerase chain reaction-reverse hybridization-based method (PCR-RH) for the one-step detection and genotyping of anogenital human papillomavirus (HPV) in a microwell format. HPV DNA was amplified and labeled by PCR using GP5+/GP6+ primers. Labeled amplicons were hybridized to 20 HPV type-specific capture probes anchored to the surface of plastic microwells and detected by an immunoenzymatic assay. Assay sensitivity was <50 pg labeled amplicon, and no cross-reactivity was observed, as determined by hybridizing serial dilutions of labeled PCR products to either matched or mismatched capture probes. The assay was tested on 66 clinical samples (23 specimens with normal histology, I fibropapilloma, 26 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 [CIN1], 9 CIN2, and 7 CIN3) and compared with a method based on restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of PCR products. PCR-RH and PCR-RFLP performed equally well on clinical samples. The overall HPV detection rate was similar: 65.1% (43/66) for PCR-RH and 57.6% (38/66) for PCR-RFLP. HPV DNA was found in all CIN2 and CIN3 samples by both methods; however, PCR-RH detected more positives among normal biopsy samples and CINI cases. Overall, there was good agreement between the two genotyping methods, but RH yielded fewer cases with undetermined HPV genotype.

Abstract
Many human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes are associated with cervical carcinoma. We demonstrate the utility of an innovative technique for genotyping of HPV in cervical tissue samples. This method provides an accurate means of identification of the specific HPV genotypes present in clinical specimens. By using the MY09-MY11 and the GP5(+)-GP6(+) consensus primer pairs, HPV sequences were amplified by nested PCR from DNA isolated from cervical smear samples. This led to the production of an approximately 140-bp PCR product from the L1 (major capsid) gene of any of the HPVs present in the sample. PCR was performed with a deoxynucleoside triphosphate mixture which resulted in the incorporation of deoxyuridine into the amplified DNA product at positions where deoxythymidine would normally be incorporated at a frequency of about once or twice per strand. Following the PCR, the product was treated with an enzyme mix that contains uracil N-glycosylase (UNG) and endonuclease IV. UNG removes the uracil base from the nucleotide, and endonuclease IV cleaves the phosphodiester bond at this newly formed abasic site, producing fragments of various sizes. By having end labeled one of the amplification primers, a DNA ladder which is analogous to a "T-sequencing ladder" was produced upon electrophoresis of the products. By comparing this T-sequencing ladder to the known sequences of HPVs, the genotypes of unknown HPV isolates in samples were assigned. Data showing the utility of this technique for the rapid analysis of clinical samples are presented.

Abstract
The occurrence of human papillomavirus (HPV) among males was analysed with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. Penile brush samples were taken once from 147 males attending for a control or for HPV non-related reasons, and consecutive samples were collected from 88 males re-attending the clinic. Of the males attending once, 13% (19/147) were HPV DNA positive and among the re-attenders 14% (12/88) were initially positive as compared with 33% (29/88) who were positive at least at one visit. Totally, 22 different HPV types were detected of which HPV 16 was most common, found in 6.4% (15/235), followed by HPV 42 found in 3.8% (9/235). Among 14 HPV-positive males with at least one follow-up, 7 had persistent infections with at least one HPV type, and transient HPV types were observed in 9; but in 5 of them new types appeared at follow-up. Among sexually-active males subclinical/latent HPV infection is common and repeated sampling increases its prevalence.

Abstract
The genome of human papillomavirus (HPV) type 70 (HPV 70), isolated from a cervical condyloma, was obtained by cloning overlapping PCR products. By automated DNA sequence analysis, the genome was found to consist of 7,905 bp with a G + C content of 40%. The genomic organization showed the characteristic features shared by other sequenced HPVs. Nucleotide sequence comparison with previously known HPV types demonstrated the closest homology with HPV 68 (82%), HPV 39 (82%), HPV 18 (70%), HPV 45 (70%), and HPV 59 (70%). Comparison with seven other partially sequenced HPV 70 isolates showed homologies of between 100 and 99.5%. Cloning of overlapping PCR products and automated DNA sequence analysis was found to be a feasible method of obtaining full-length sequences of HPVs.

Abstract
A novel method for the detection and typing of human papillomaviruses (HPV) based on consensus polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using MY09/MY11 primers followed by detection of PCR products in a standard microtiter plate format using a recently developed commercially available standardised PCR ELISA kit (Boehringer Mannheim, Germany) was developed. The reliability and feasibility of the method were evaluated on 140 HPV-positive and 85 HPV-negative DNA samples extracted from different archival clinical specimens. Virtually complete agreement between the results of this novel method and the results of previous in-house PCRs and typing method was obtained. The sensitivity level of the novel method, determined by serial log-dilutions of SiHa cells, is about 50 copies of HPV 16. The PCR-ELISA provides the potential for an automated, simple, rapid and accurate test for detection and typing of HPV in diagnostic virological laboratories.

Abstract
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primer sets and probe-cocktails were used for human papillomavirus (HPV) detection and typing of 146 fresh frozen biopsies of cervical carcinoma. We obtained a high detection rate (96%) by using three sets of consensus primer pairs directed at the L1 and E1 regions of HPV and by probing with a cocktail of random-labelled consensus and type-specific PCR products derived from HPV plasmids. In addition, we performed type-specific PCR amplification with E6-E7 primers. The procedure was designed to detect all HPV-positive cases in a rapid, sensitive and specific way. In addition, by using different regions for amplification, we detected cases with putative genomic deletions in HPV. All the negative PCR and DNA isolation controls were negative. The six negative samples were negative with all probe-cocktails and type-specific primers and three of these negative samples were clear cell carcinomas. The detection rate was similar in squamous carcinomas and in adenocarcinomas and type 16 was most common (65%) in both types of carcinoma. There were no double infections of human papillomavirus 16 and 18.
