Micrograph showing block positive p16 immunostaining in high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion of the cervix. p16 is commonly used as a surrogate marker for human papillomavirus (HPV). (WC)
Human papillomavirus, abbreviated HPV, is virus implicated in a large number of cancers.
General
- Sexually transmitted.
Note:
- Some tests can be done on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue.[1]
Associated pathology
- Benign:
- Malignant:
- Cervical cancer and precursors (LSIL, HSIL).
- Anal cancer and precursors (AIN).[2]
- Vulvar cancer.[2]
- Vaginal cancer.[2]
- Penile cancer.[2]
- HPV-associated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma - oropharynx (specifically - tonsils, base of tongue).
- Human papillomavirus-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma (previously known as HPV-related carcinoma with adenoid cystic-like features).
Oncocytic types
Known as "high risk" types; this grouping includes:[5]
- HPV 18 - predominantly adenocarcinoma.[6]
- Eighteen = adenocarcinoma.
- HPV 16 - predominantly squamous cell carcinoma.[6]
- Sixteen = squamous.
- HPV 31.
- HPV 33.
- HPV 45.
Oncogenesis
Quick & dirty explanation of pathogenesis:[7][8]
- Virus integrates into host genome.
- This is accompanied by loss of viral gene E2 (which suppresses function of E6 & E7).
- Viral gene E6 dysregulates p53.
- Viral gene E7 dysregulates RB.
Vaccine
Recombinant vaccine (Gardasil, Silgard) - covers:[9]
- HPV 6.
- HPV 11.
- HPV 16.
- HPV 18.
Microscopic
Features:
- Koilocytes:
- Perinuclear clearing.
- Nuclear changes.
- Size similar (or larger) to those in the basal layer of the epithelium.
- Nuclear enlargement should be evident on low power, i.e. 25x.
- Central location - nucleus should be smack in the middle of the cell.
Images
LSIL (WC).
LSIL & endocervix (WC).
IHC
- p16 +ve -- stains most cells infected by HPV.
Images
Block positive p16 staining in HSIL. (WC)

c/w HPV-assoc. SCC - p16 - high mag. (WC/Nephron)
