Recurrent integration of human papillomaviruses 16, 45, and 67 near translocation breakpoints in new cervical cancer cell lines
Abstract
Progressive chromosomal changes and integration of human papillomavirus (HPV) sequences mark the development of invasive cervical cancer. Chromosomal localization of HPV integration is essential to the study of genomic regions involved in HPV-induced pathogenesis. Yet, the available information about HPV integration loci is still limited, especially with respect to different HPV types. We have established cell lines from five cervical cancers with HPV-16, HPV-45, and HPV-67. We have determined HPV integration sites and karyotype abnormalities by using the multicolor combined binary ratio-fluorescence in situ hybridization method (Tanke et al.) with 24 chromosome-specific paints in combination with full-length HPV DNA probes. All cell lines were cytogenetically abnormal, and exhibited numerical and structural chromosomal deviations. HPV sequences were integrated at various (segments of) chromosomes. Duplicate integration sites were seen in all multiploid cell lines, suggesting that viral integration had preceded chromosomal endoreduplication. HPV-16 was found near the t(3p14.1-14.3;14) breakpoint in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC)-7 and mainly in episomal form in CSCC-1. HPV-45 was integrated near 3q26-29 in cervical (adeno or adenosquamous) carcinoma (CC)-8 and near 1q21-23 as well as near the t(1q21;22q13) breakpoint in CC-10A and CC-10B variant lines. HPV-67 was localized near the breakpoint of t(3p23-26;13q22-31) in CC-11. Southern blot analysis showed that,…
