Abstract
Aim: We aimed to investigate the presence of human papillomavirus type 197 (HPV197) in patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Materials & methods: 58 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples, including 12 SCC and 46 BCC and the adjacent non-tumoral skin of the same patient were analyzed for the presence of HPV197E6 gene, using a quantitative real-time PCR assay. Results: The HPV197E6 gene was identified in 12 tumor samples (7 BCC and 5 SCC), but not in the control group. Conclusion: Based on these results, a high copy number of HPV197E6 gene provides additional support for the role of HPV197 in skin cancer.
