Instead of continuing to analyse smoking and HPV as oncogenic factors separately, we set out to focus on their possible interaction, said Enrique Boccardo, penultimate author of the article and a professor in the Department of Microbiology at the University of So Paulos Biomedical Sciences Institute (ICB-USP) in Brazil.Both smoking and HPV are associated with heightened oxidative stress and DNA damage, which are factors in cancer and, according to previous research, can regulate superoxide dismutase 2 [SOD2], a putative biomarker of oral cancer malignancy and other diseases associated with HPV.
