Today, medicine has information about more than a hundred types of human papillomavirus (HPV). They are divided according to different characteristics, including the category of danger to human health.
Symptoms of HPV depend on the provoking factors, that is, papillomatosis does not have a single clinical picture. In children and people with a weakened immune system, the appearance of signs of the disease is much higher than in others.
HPV is one of the most common viruses. Most often, infection occurs through sexual and contact-household means. For many years, the virus can remain dormant and not manifest itself.
When infected with HPV, the concept of "curing the virus" is not used. Today, there are simply no drugs that would completely kill and remove infectious strains from the body.
HPV is a highly specific infection in relation to the human body from the Papovaviridea family, that is, papoviruses of subgroup A. Every sixth person on the planet is its carrier.
The appearance of warts and papillomas on the body is associated with the penetration of the papillomatous virus into the body. However, not everyone knows that relatively harmless neoplasms on the skin are not the only manifestation of this far from safe virus.
Of the many strains of human papillomavirus known today, more than three dozen infect the genital and anal areas, and among them are potentially oncogenic ones, in particular, HPV 51 or HPV 51.
The Poxviridae family (English pox - smallpox + viruses) includes two subfamilies: Chordopoxvirinae, which includes vertebrate smallpox viruses, and Entomopoxvirinae, which includes insect smallpox viruses.
The icosahedral nucleocapsid of the papilloma virus contains fragments of double-stranded DNA, for the replication of which it requires foreign proteins. HPV gains access to them by penetrating human cells through endocytosis of the cellular receptor, and forms its shell from proteins of cellular membranes.
Having lived most of their life, by the age of 50, a person usually acquires a decent baggage of various diseases. Some of them are the result of unhealthy diet, unhealthy lifestyle, bad habits, etc.
