Abstract

Types 16 and 18 of human papillomavirus have a very high rate of causing cervical cancer. Studies show that mutations in the nucleotide sequence in the genome of types 16 and 18 can promote cervical cancer progression and other symptoms in patients. In this study, we analyzed changes in nucleotide sequences of genes E6, E7 and L1 of two HPV types 16 and 18 in patients with confirmed cervical cancer. 104 patients were screened to include 63 patients in the study of which 46 cases are HPV-16 single infection and 17 cases are HPV-18 single infection. The results of nucleotide sequence analysis of the E6, E7, L1 genes of these types showed that Type HPV 16 has 13 mutations found in the E6 gene; the highest mutation rate was T350G at 100%, the lowest is A378G at 10.9%. C578T site of the E7 gene had the highest mutation rate at 60.9% and the lowest was A739G at 13.0%. 40 mutations were identified in the L1 gene, of which the G7060A mutation had the highest rate of 80.4%. In HPV Type 18, there are 14 mutations in the E6 gene, the highest rate was G532T at 41.2%; On the E7 gene, 6 mutations were found, of which mutations C894T and C898T accounted for 47.1%. There were 24 mutations found in the L1 gene, the highest mutation appeared at position G5612T at 17.6%.
