The prevalence of type 6, 11, 16, 18, and 33 human papillomavirus (HPV) was investigated with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on formalin-fixed, paraffin wax-embedded material, in-cluding48 neoplastic and 21 normal urinary bladder specimens. The PCR-amplified DNA were ana

Seventy-nine transitional cell carcinomas (TCCs) of the urinary bladder (25 grade 1, 22 grade 2, and 32 grade 3 tumours) were examined for p53 overexpression by immunohistochemistry with a monoclonal antibody and for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Positi
Infection with different types of human papillomavirus (HPV) is associated with neoplasia at different anatomic sites. The "low-risk" HPVs (LR-HPV) are responsible for benign genital lesions such as condyloma acuminata. In order to clarify the tumorigenic mechanism of LR-HPV, the HPV infection statu
