Physical state and regulation of HPV genes in cervical cancers In most cervical cancer cells, the high-risk type HPV DNAs often integrate into the chromosome of host cells by disruption of HPV E2 protion.
From a public health point of view, it would be useful to know whether or not repeated incidences of HPV infections correlate with subsequent cervical cancer incidence since the ability to predict such an occurrence will help decision makers in the allotment of resources.
