The purpose of this study is to investigate the possible cause-effect association between HPV and TGF-β1 during cervical tumorigenesis. Methods: We assessed the expression of HPV capsid proteins, HPV-16 E7, HPV-16 E2 (C and N terminals), TGF-β1, and their receptors TGF-β1 RI and RII by immunohistochemistry in 48 paraffin-embedded blocks of tumor tissue derived from patients of cervical neoplasia. Results: Expression of TGF-β1 decreased as tumor cells progressed from cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)1, CIN2, CIN3, to microinvasive carcinoma (P < 0.05). Levels of TGF-βRI and TGFβ-RII stayed the same in all cases. HPV was found in 89.6% of the studied sections, and cervical lesions without HPV infection expressed significantly less TGF-β1 (P < 0.05). By comparing the expression pattern of TGF-β1 and HPV in the neoplastic cells with that of normal cervical epithelium in each section, we found loss of HPV-16 E2 higher in CIN3 (15/24) than in CIN1 or CIN2 (3/7), and there is a significant trend that loss of HPV-16 E2 expression correlated with a >50% loss of TGF-β1 at the lesion site (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Our result showed co-suppression of HPV and TGF-β1 expression during progression of cervical squamous cell cancer. Using antibody against HPV-16 E2 may be an auxiliary tool for the investigation of cervical tumor progression. ? 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc. |
