Abstract
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare, proliferative disease caused by human papillomavirus 6 (HPV6) and HPV11. RRP can occasionally spread and undergo malignant transformation.
We analysed samples across time for five RRP patients with malignant transformation and four with highly recurrent, non-malignant RRP by applying high-throughput sequencing.
Patients with malignant transformation were infected by HPV11_A1/A2, while most non-malignant cases were associated with HPV6. Transient multiple infections with HPV6 and HPV11 were found in two patients, and resolved later to single infections. Viral genome loads were homogeneous across groups (median = 78 viral genomes per human genome). Within-patient, we did not observe differences between the viral sequences in the papillomatous lesions and in the malignant tissue. Genetic analysis of the NLRP1 gene revealed no known mutations linked to idiopathic RRP, though some novel variants merit to be explored in larger cohorts.
HPV11 infections appear associated with RRP malignant transformation in young patients. Multiple infections can occur in RRP, but within-patient viral diversity is minimal for a given genotype. Our results confirm the importance of viral genotype in disease prognosis and are consistent with growing evidence of HPV11 infections to be differentially associated with RRP malignant transformation in young patients.
