Absence of HPV-18 in the MDA-MB-175VII and SK-Br-3 breast cancer cell lines. (A) HPV-18 genome structure and PCR primer sets used in this study. (B) PCR for HPV-18 DNA in cell lines. The indicated primer sets were used to amplify the NCR, L1, E6 and E7 regions of HPV18 DNA. L1* indicates the primer set used in the article by Heng et al. (C) Early transcripts of HPV-18 and primer sets used for RT–PCR. (D) RT–PCR for mRNAs of HPV-18 early genes (E6 and E7).
