RNA expression profile comparison of HFKs expressing E6/E7 from beta-3 HPVs (49, 75, 76, 115) and from HR alpha HPV16 and beta-2 HPV38. Homo sapiens

Comparative analysis of RNA expression profiles of keratinocytes expressing E6/E7 from the different beta-3, with the RNA profiles of HPV16 and HPV38 E6/E7 HFKs reveals that HPV115 is the more divergent from the HR-mucosal type. Moreover beta-3 HPV 49, 75 and 76 E6/E7 HFKs show altered expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation and DNA damage response which are also deregulated by expression of E6/E7 of HPV16. Overall design: Total RNA obtained from Human Foreskin Keratinocytes (HFKs) expressing E6/E7 from 6 different HPV types (49, 75, 76, 115, 16, 38) compared to 2 controls (HFK and empty vector).
