Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Viruses are related to 15-20% of human cancers worldwide. Many studies focused on clarifying the molecular mechanisms and genetic alterations caused by oncogenic viruses. Among different oncoviruses, human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are small, non-enveloped, double-stranded DNA viruses, which can infect mucosal or cutaneous epithelia. Many HPVs have been classified as low-risk viruses associated with benign warts in the general population. Other HPVs entitled as the high-risk HPV types cause several important human cancers including cervical cancer, other anogenital cancers and head and neck tumors. A general description of HPV types and their association with different disorders are presented in this chapter.
