β¦ Synopsis
Rat 3Y I cell cultures transfected with human papillomavirus type-I8 (HPV 18) D N A produced foci of morphologically transformed cells capable of anchorage-independent growth. Analyses of the transformed cell clones obtained after transfection with EcoRI-cleaved linear HPV 18 D N A showed that, although the viral DNAs integrated in the cell D N A had rearrangements (probably around the sites of integration), they appeared to retain the putative transcriptional control region and the downstream area containing E6E7 open reading frames (ORF) intact, and to be transcriptionally active. The expression plasmids constructed from an SV40-derived expression vector (pSV2-0) and HPV 18 D N A fragments containing either E6 or E7 ORF intact were examined for their transforming capacity. HPV 18 E7 ORF was found to encode a transforming gene for rat 3Y I cells.

When cervical carcinoma cells were monitored for apoptotic signals, HPV18 Ψ lines were found to be highly sensitive to agonistic CD95 antibodies or recombinant CD95 ligands after co-exposure with CHX (CD95 S ). In contrast, HPV16 Ψ cervical carcinoma cells and HPV16-immortalized non-malignant human
Southern blot analyses of surgical specimens of cervical carcinoma from Japanese patients showed that 3/9 samples contained human papillomavirus (HPV) type-I6 DNA sequences, and 2 contained HPV type-I6 DNA sequences. By Northern blot analyses, RNA transcripts of HPV DNA sequences were demonstrated i
