Understand the Problem
The text in the image provides information about human papillomavirus (HPV) types, distinguishing between high-risk and low-risk types, and outlining their effects and transmission. It aims to clarify the risks associated with different HPV types and how an infection may interact with host genomes.
Answer
High-risk HPV causes cervical neoplasia; low-risk HPV causes warts.
High-risk HPV types like 16, 18, and 31 can cause cervical neoplasia, while low-risk types such as 6 and 11 are linked to skin warts and genital warts. HPV is sexually transmitted and can integrate its genome into the host cells but does not kill them.
Answer for screen readers
High-risk HPV types like 16, 18, and 31 can cause cervical neoplasia, while low-risk types such as 6 and 11 are linked to skin warts and genital warts. HPV is sexually transmitted and can integrate its genome into the host cells but does not kill them.
More Information
HPV is a common sexually transmitted infection. High-risk types are closely linked to cervical cancer, while low-risk types mainly cause warts. The integration of viral DNA into the host genome can lead to cell transformation.
