Cutaneous human papillomavirus E7 type-specific effects on differentiation and proliferation of organotypic skin cultures.
CONCLUSION: HPV types associated with either benign or malignant lesions perturb keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation in different ways. Moreover, expression of E7 from HPV 5 or HPV 8 seem able to overcome p16(INK4a) induced cell cycle arrest in a subset of keratinocytes.
