Sexual transmission of murine papillomavirus (MmuPV1) in Mus musculus
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the most common sexually transmitted infectious agents. Because of the species specificity of HPVs, study of their natural transmission in laboratory animals is not possible.

A Novel In Vivo Model of Laryngeal Papillomavirus-Associated Disease Using Mus musculus Papillomavirus [PDF]
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP), caused by laryngeal infection with low-risk human papillomaviruses, has devastating effects on vocal communication and quality of life.

Mus musculus papillomavirus 1 E8^E2 represses expression of late protein E4 in basal-like keratinocytes via NCoR/SMRT-HDAC3 co-repressor complexes to enable wart formation in vivo [PDF]
High-risk human papillomaviruses (PV) account for approximately 600,000 new cancers per year. The early protein E8^E2 is a conserved repressor of PV replication, whereas E4 is a late protein that arrests cells in G2 and collapses keratin filaments to ...

Protocol for in vivo lineage tracing of the mouse-papillomavirus-type 1-infected cells in mice [PDF]
Summary: Here, we present a protocol to create an in vivo lineage-tracing mouse model for mouse-papillomavirus-type 1 (MmuPV1)-infected cells. We describe the steps to generate and deliver the MmuPV1 lox-Cre-lox plasmid for the infection of mice ...

The Larynx is Protected from Secondary and Vertical Papillomavirus Infection in Immunocompetent Mice. [PDF]
In humans, human papillomaviruses that cause recurrent respiratory papillomatosis can spread to the larynx from other tissue sites (secondary infection), and to the larynx of infants from genitally infected mothers (vertical infection). We examined larynges of over 430 immunocompetent adult and juvenile mice infected with mouse papillomavirus MmuPV1 in

Increased Susceptibility of WHIM Mice to Papillomavirus-induced Disease is Dependent upon Immune Cell Dysfunction. [PDF]
Warts, Hypogammaglobulinemia, Infections, and Myelokathexis (WHIM) syndrome is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease in humans caused by a gain of function in CXCR4, mostly due to inherited heterozygous mutations in CXCR4. One major clinical symptom of

Efficacy of Topically Administered Dihydroartemisinin in Treating Papillomavirus-Induced Anogenital Dysplasia in Preclinical Mouse Models [PDF]
The artemisinin family of compounds is cytopathic in certain cancer cell lines that are positive for human papillomaviruses (HPV) and can potentially drive the regression of dysplastic lesions. We evaluated the efficacy of topical dihydroartemisinin (DHA)

Monitoring mouse papillomavirus-associated cancer development using longitudinal Pap smear screening [PDF]
A substantial percentage of the population remains at risk for cervical cancer due to pre-existing human papillomavirus (HPV) infections, despite prophylactic vaccines. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for better disease outcomes.

Intraperitoneal delivery of cannabidiol (CBD) and Δ9-tetrahydocannabinol (THC) promotes papillomavirus infections in athymic nude mice [PDF]
We used our mouse papillomavirus (MmuPV1) model to test the hypothesis that two primary psychoactive ingredients of marijuana, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), promote papillomavirus persistence in the oral mucosa of infected mice. We

Immune status, strain background, and anatomic site of inoculation affect mouse papillomavirus (MmuPV1) induction of exophytic papillomas or endophytic trichoblastomas. [PDF]
Papillomaviruses (PVs) induce papillomas, premalignant lesions, and carcinomas in a wide variety of species. PVs are classified first based on their host and tissue tropism and then their genomic diversities.
