Description
The Immortalized Human Foreskin Keratinocytes (16E6/E7 HFK) were derived from foreskin tissue of newborns and were transfected with a retrovirus expressing HPV-16 E7 and HPV-16 E6. The HPV-16 E6 and E7 delay cellular differentiation and keep the immortalized cells in a state of DNA synthesis even after they have entered the suprabasal layer of the epidermis. Serum-induced and calcium-induced differentiation of the Immortalized Human Foreskin Keratinocytes is also inhibited by HPV-16 E6. In these immortalized cells, the regulated genes by the HPV-16 E6 and E7 may play a role in the HPV life cycle and in HPV-mediated carcinogenesis which make the Immortalized Human Foreskin Keratinocytes (16E6/E7 HFK) valuable not only as a model in immunology but also in gene regulation studies.
