摘要

The high risk human papillomaviruses are implicated in the etiology of most human cervical carcinomas. This thesis describes investigations of the ability of the HPV type 16 E6 and E7 oncoproteins to interfere with specific cellular proliferation and apoptosis control mechanisms in normal diploid human fibroblasts. Mitotic checkpoints were first examined. These checkpoints maintain genomic stability and, thus, likely act to limit carcinogenesis. HPV-16 E6 expression decreased the fidelity of multiple mitotic checkpoints. After irradiation, nearly 50% of cells containing HPV-16 E6 entered mitosis as opposed to less than 10% of control cells. Consistent with this, asynchronous cell populations expressing HPV-16 E6 had increased cdc2-associated kinase activity relative to control populations. In addition, cell populations expressing HPV-16 E6 displayed decreased mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint function and an increased tendency to undergo chemically-induced S-phase premature mitosis. HPV-16 E6 mutants with a reduced ability to target p53 for degradation did not abrogate mitotic checkpoints and expression of dominant negative p53 mutant genes also generated decreases in mitotic checkpoint function, suggesting HPV-16 E6 disrupts mitotic checkpoints in part through inactivating p53.;In addition to mitotic checkpoint disruption, activities encoded by the HPV interfere with apoptosis signal transduction pathways. Apoptosis is both an important component of host antiviral defenses and can suppress tumorigenesis. The HPV-16 E7 oncoprotein inhibits apoptosis signal transduction initiated by the antiviral cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-
