Abstract:
Preview Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections in the United States, and evidence that HPV plays a central role in the development of cervical cancer and its precursors is growing. Recent innovations in detection techniques have permitted progress in HPV epidemiology, which in turn has fueled new clinical controversies. This article outlines some recent advances in technology and the questions that remain concerning management of cervical HPV infection.

Retroviruses are RNA viruses that have been shown to cause cancers in diverse species, including chickens, mice, cats, and monkeys. The RNA genomes of these viruses are first reverse-transcribed into single and then double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) copies. This dsDNA called proviral DNA then integrates into the host genome. Subsequently, the host cell transcribes the proviral DNA in concert with the chromosomal DNA. This leads to the production of viral RNA and proteins that assemble at the host...
