Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Papillomavirus are oncogenic double-strand DNA viruses and induce benign hyperplastic lesions of skin tissues and mucous membranes in their various hosts, including many domestic and wild animals and humans. There are some papillomavirus genotypes that can infect hosts other than their own. The main focus in this Special Issue is the study of many papillomavirus and the assessment of interactions between high-risk papillomavirus oncoproteins and programmed cell-death pathways. I appeal to all members of this community to submit numerous articles that, among other things, will provide a summary of researchers working in the field of papillomavirus biology. I hope that readers of these articles will find them useful to make our community a reality, thus strengthening an open exchange of ideas that will help stimulate our scientific curiosity. I look forward to our community helping to launch a very interesting Special Issue. Please feel free to contact any other colleagues you think can contribute.
