Abstract
Reinterpretation of the Wartburg effect leads to understanding aerobic glycolysis as a process that provides considerable amount of molecular precursors for the production of lipids, nucleotides and amino acids that are necessary for continuous growth and rapid proliferation characteristic for cancer cells. Human papilloma virus (HPV) is a number one cause of cervical carcinoma with 99% of the cervical cancer patients being HPV positive. This tight link between HPV and cancer raises the question if and how HPV impact cells to reprogram their metabolism? Focusing on early phase proteins E1, E2, E5, E6 and E7 we demonstrate that HPV activates plethora of metabolic pathways and directly influences enzymes of the glycolysis pathway to promote the Warburg effect by increasing glucose uptake, activating glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathway, increasing the level of lactate dehydrogenase A synthesis and inhibiting β-oxidation. Our considerations lead to conclusion that HPV is substantially involved in metabolic cell reprogramming toward neoplastic phenotype and its metabolic activity is the fundamental reason of its oncogenicity.

Abstract
Importance In the US, incidence of and mortality due to anal carcinoma are rising faster than for most other cancers. Identifying populations who have a higher risk of developing anal cancers is critical to target preventive interventions. Objective To assess the risk of developing anal carcinoma in adults living with HIV who have a history of anogenital warts. Design, Setting, and Participants This longitudinal cohort study included adults living with HIV from 14 clinics in Washington, DC, and at least 18 months of follow-up. Data were collected from January 1, 2011, to March 31, 2017, and analyzed from June 1, 2019, to October 31, 2020. Exposures Development of warts in the anal or genital region identified by diagnosis codes. Main Outcomes and Measures Individuals with anal carcinoma were identified by diagnosis codes or anal biopsy results. Results A total of 6515 participants were enrolled (4720 male [72.4%] at birth; mean [SD] age, 49.9 [12.7] years), and 383 (5.9%) developed anogenital warts during the study period. Patients who were diagnosed with anogenital warts were more likely to subsequently develop anal carcinoma (17 of 383 [4.4%]) compared with participants without a history of anogenital warts (17 of 6132 [0.3%]) (P < .001). After adjusting for covariates, the odds of developing anal carcinoma were 12.79 (95% CI, 6.19-26.45; P < .001) times higher in individuals with a history of anogenital warts compared with individuals without a history of anogenital warts. Conclusions and Relevance These findings suggest that adults living with HIV who have a history of anogenital warts have a substantially increased risk of developing anal carcinoma. Clinicians should counsel individuals living with HIV who have anogenital warts on this risk.

Abstract
Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is recognized as the most important cofactor in the etiology of cancers of the cervix, esophagus, larynx, and nasopharynx. Experimental evidence suggests that HPV could have an oncogenic influence on thyroid follicular cells; however, to the best of our knowledge, there is no record of its role in human thyroid gland neoplasms. Objective: The purpose of this study is to describe the frequency and the types of HPV present in neoplastic thyroid tissue by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Methods: Over 157 samples were analyzed of paraffin-embedded tissue from malignant and benign thyroid tumors. All the paraffin blocks were selected consecutively from the Pathology Tissue Bank archive of the Western Medical Center. The molecular detection and typing were performed at the Molecular Microbiology Laboratory of the Biomedical Research Center, Mexican Institute of Social Security. Results: The frequency of HPV findings was 2.5% (four cases). HPV-6 was found in two cases of thyroid hyperplasia (2.5%), and HPV-33 in two cases of papillary cancer (4.6%). Conclusion: The presence of HPV is not frequent in thyroid neoplasms, at least in the studied population. Due to the low prevalence of this virus in our sample, it is not possible to reach conclusions. Further research is needed.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the prevalence, persistence and risk factors of high oncogenic risk human papillomavirus (HPV) among urban and rural women of reproductive age coming to consult a gynaecologist. METHODS A prospective cohort study in urban (Kaunas) and rural (Marijampole) regions of Lithuania. The data were collected in 8 healthcare institutions from women seeking consultation of gynaecologists using a questionnaire for finding out demographic, social, behavioural and biomedical factors. HPV DNA was determined by molecular hybridization method (hybrid capture version II) determining HPV of high oncogenic risk. RESULT 1,120 women participated in the study. The prevalence of high-risk HPV among the studied women was 25.1%. It was higher among the urban women than among the rural women. The prevalence of high-risk HPV was increased if the subjects had 2 or more sexual partners during the last 12 months (OR 2.81; 95% CI 1.83-4.32), were 19 years of age or younger (OR 2.68; 95% CI 1.47-4.91), were smoking (OR 1.81; 95% CI 1.16-2.81), and had secondary or lower education level (OR 1.43; 95% CI 1.01-2.04). This infection was obviously associated with high- and low-grade squamous intraepithelial changes of the cervix (OR 1.66, 95% CI = 1.08-2.53). CONCLUSION The incidence rate for cervical cancer in Lithuania is one of the highest in comparison with other European countries. HPV infection was also particularly common in the studied population. About one-fourth of the women were infected with high-risk HPV infection. Young and less educated women were found to be the group that was most exposed to HPV, and therefore public health interventions and education seem to be essential in programs aimed at reducing the incidence of cervical cancer.

Abstract
Infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) invariably leads to the development of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in most infected humans, yet does so rarely, if at all, in HIV-infected chimpanzees. The differences between the two species are not due to differences in cellular receptors or an inability of the chimpanzee to be infected, but rather to the lack of pan-immune activation in the infected primate. This results in reduced apoptotic death in CD4+ T-helper lymphocytes and a lower viral load. In humans the degree of chronic immune activation correlates with virus load and clinical outcome with high immune activation leading to high viral loads and the more rapid progression to AIDS and death. The type of immune perturbation seen in HIV-associated AIDS is similar to that of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) where reduced cell-mediated immune (CMI) responses occur early in the course of the disease and where humoral responses (HI) predominate. A reduced CMI response occurs in a number of chronic infectious diseases, including tuberculosis and leishmaniasis. More recently, it has become increasingly apparent that the CMI response is suppressed in virtually all malignant diseases, including melanoma and colorectal and prostate cancer. This raises the possibility that, as the malignant process develops, the cancer cells evolve to subvert the CMI response. Moreover, the reduced CMI response seen in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients is completely reversed following curative surgery strongly supporting the hypothesis that CRC can suppress the systemic immune response. Wound healing, ovulation, embryo implantation, and fetal growth are all associated with suppressed CMI and neovascularization (the formation of new blood vessels) or angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels from an existing vasculature). If unresolved, wound healing results in chronic inflammation, which can give rise to the phenomenon of "scar cancers." Indeed all the chronic inflammatory conditions known to be associated with the subsequent development of malignant disease, including chronic obstructive airway disease (COPD), ulcerative colitis (UC), and asbestosis, give rise to similar proangiogenic, suppressed CMI, and HI-predominant environments. In keeping with this CMI-associated cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-2 and interferon (IFN)-gamma tend to be antiangiogenic, whereas HI cytokines such as IL-6 tend to be proangiogenic. Furthermore, chronic immune activation leads to the synthesis and release of factors such as macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1 that inhibit apoptosis through suppression of p53 activity. The "Golden Triangle" of suppressed CMI, angiogenesis, and reduced apoptosis would provide the ideal environment for the serial mutations to occur that are required for the development of malignant disease. If the observed association is relevant to carcinogenesis, then treatments aimed at reducing the components of these inflammatory conditions may be useful both in the setting of chemoprevention and the therapeutic management of established disease.

Abstract
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) play a central role in the aetiology of cervical neoplasia. However, only a small proportion of cervical intraepithelial lesions infected with high-risk HPVs will progress to invasive cervical carcinoma, which indicates the involvement of additional factors. An important emerging viral factor is naturally occurring intratypic sequence variation. Such variation has been used to study the geographical spread of HPVs, but there is increasing evidence that it may be important in determining the risk of development of neoplastic disease. The collected data indicate that different HPV variants have altered biochemical and biological properties and represent an additional risk factor in the development of squamous intraepithelial lesions and invasive carcinoma of the cervix. This may be relevant not only to the biology of HPV infection and its association with squamous neoplasia, but also to the use of HPV typing in clinical practice.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the commonest sexually transmitted viral infection and one of its manifestations is genital warts or condyloma acuminata. Eight cases of vulvo-vaginal warts were diagnosed between January 1992 and December 1993. There were 4 Malays, 2 Chinese and 2 Indians. The patients' age ranged from 22 to 43 years (mean 27.9 years). Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were studied by histology and in situ hybridization using biotinylated probes to detect the HPV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31 and 33. All vulvar and vaginal lesions showed typical histopathological features of condylomatous changes. HPV 6 and HPV 11 were detected in 100% (8/8) and 87.5% (7/8) of all cases, respectively. HPVs 16, 18, 31 and 33 were not found. The positive cells were mainly in the upper layers of the squamous epithelium. The hybridization data indicated that the HPV found in this study one of the same types as found in other studies.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that angiogenesis and suppressed cell-mediated immunity (CMI) play a central role in the pathogenesis of malignant disease facilitating tumour growth, invasion and metastasis. In the majority of tumours, the malignant process is preceded by a pathological condition or exposure to an irritant which itself is associated with the induction of angiogenesis and/or suppressed CMI. These include: cigarette smoking, chronic bronchitis and lung cancer; chronic oesophagitis and oesophageal cancer; chronic viral infections such as human papilloma virus and ano-genital cancers, chronic hepatitis B and C and hepatocellular carcinoma, and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and lymphomas; chronic inflammatory conditions such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and colorectal cancer; asbestos exposure and mesothelioma and excessive sunlight exposure/sunburn and malignant melanoma. Chronic exposure to growth factors (insulin-like growth factor-I in acromegaly), mutations in tumour suppressor genes (TP53 in Li Fraumeni syndrome) and long-term exposure to immunosuppressive agents (cyclosporin A) may also give rise to similar environments and are associated with the development of a range of solid tumours. The increased blood supply would facilitate the development and proliferation of an abnormal clone or clones of cells arising as the result of: (a) an inherited genetic abnormality; and/or (b) acquired somatic mutations, the latter due to local production and/or enhanced delivery of carcinogens and mutagenic growth factors. With progressive detrimental mutations and growth-induced tumour hypoxia, the transformed cell, to a lesser or greater extent, may amplify the angiogenic process and CMI suppression, thereby facilitating further tumour growth and metastasis. There is accumulating evidence that long-term treatment with cyclo-oxygenase inhibitors (aspirin and indomethacin), cytokines such as interferon-alpha, anti-oestrogens (tamoxifen and raloxifene) and captopril significantly reduces the incidence of solid tumours such as breast and colorectal cancer. These agents are anti-angiogenic and, in the case of aspirin, indomethacin and interferon-alpha have proven immunomodulatory effects. Collectively these observations indicate that angiogenesis and suppressed CMI play a central role in the development and progression of malignant disease.
