Abstract:
High-risk human papillomavirus infection is the major cause of tumors such as cervical cancer and head and neck cancer.MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 20-25nt small non-coding RNAs,which are involved in the proliferation,apoptosis,invasion and migration of tumors.HR-HPVs,which integrate into the host genome,encode three oncogenes:E6,E7 and E5 and enhance carcinogenesis by regulating downstream miRNAs and genes e.g.p53 and pRb.
