Transforming Properties of E6/E7 Oncogenes from Beta-2 HPV80 in Primary Human Fibroblasts. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
RNA-seq analysis identified 196 upregulated DEGs (such as GPAT2, MST1R, ACAN, SLCO4A1, and CHRNA3) and 887 downregulated DEGs (such as KLHDC7B, TRIM58, CST1, FBLL1, INHBE, and TMEM132D) shared between FB-E6/E7-HPV80 and FB-E6/E7-HPV16. Enriched pathways included p53, TNF, IL-17, apoptosis, cell cycle, etc. These findings suggest that E6/E7-HPV80 exhibits transforming capabilities that could play an important role in cervical carcinogenesis.
