Infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV) is a major
risk factor for development of cervical cancer. Expression of the HPV
E6 and E7 oncoproteins increases in differentiating keratinocytes,
resulting in inactivation of the p53 and retinoblastoma proteins, two
important transcriptional regulators. We used cDNA microarrays to
examine global alterations in gene expression in differentiating
cervical keratinocytes after infection with retroviruses encoding HPV
type 16 (HPV-16) E6 and E7. Expression of 80 cellular genes
(approximately 4% of the genes on the array) was altered reproducibly
by E6 and/or E7. Cluster analysis classified these genes into three
functional groups: (i) interferon (IFN)-responsive genes, (ii) genes
stimulated by NF-
B, and (iii) genes regulated in cell cycle
progression and DNA synthesis. HPV-16 E6 or a dominant negative p53
protein downregulated multiple IFN-responsive genes. E6 decreased
expression of IFN-
and -
, downregulated nuclear STAT-1 protein,
and decreased binding of STAT-1 to the IFN-stimulated response element.
E7 alone was less effective; however, coexpression of E6 and E7
downregulated IFN-responsive genes more efficiently than E6. The HPV-16
E6 protein also stimulated expression of multiple genes known to be
inducible by NF-
B and AP-1. E6 enhanced expression of functional
components of the NF-
B signal pathway, including p50, NIK, and
TRAF-interacting protein, and increased binding to NF-
B and AP-1 DNA
consensus binding sites. Secretion of interleukin-8, RANTES, macrophage
inflammatory protein 1
, and 10-
Da IFN-
-inducible protein were
increased in differentiating keratinocytes by E6. Thus, high-level
expression of the HPV-16 E6 protein in differentiating keratinocytes
directly alters expression of genes that influence host resistance to
infection and immune function.
