    Abstract:
    Infection of epithelial cells with high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) types, followed by expression of virus oncogenic proteins (E5, E6, and E7), leads to genomic imbalance, suppression of tumor inhibitors, and induction of oncogenes. Low-risk HPV (LR-HPV) may slow the rate at which cervical cancer spreads to an invasive stage since co-infection with LR-HPV is linked to a decreased risk of future invasive cancer than infection with HR-HPV alone. We then propose that cancer-progressing changes may be distinguished through identifying the functional differences between LR-HPV and HR-HPV. Lentiviral strategies were followed to establish HaCaT cells with constitutive expression of HPV oncogenes. RNAseq experiments were designed to analyze the transcriptome modulations caused by each of the E5, E6, and E7 oncogenes of HPV-16 and HPV-84 in HaCaT cells. We identified enhanced RNA degradation, spliceosome, and RNA polymerase pathways related to mRNA processing. ATTS (alternative transcription termination site) was discovered to be more prevalent in cells with HPV-16E5 than HPV-84E5. In HPV-16E6-infected cells, ATTS gain was significantly higher than ATTS loss. Cells with HPV-16E7 had more isoforms with intron retention (IR) than those with HPV-84E7. We identified switches in ADAM10, CLSPN, and RNPS1 that led to greater expression of the coding isoforms in HR-HPV. The results of this work highlight differences between LR-HPV and HR-HPV in mRNA processing. Moreover, crucial cervical cancer-related switch events were detected.
