This study investigated the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in Schneiderian papillomas (SPs) to determine whether HPV is associated with the pathogenesis of particular histologic subtypes and whether p16(INK4a) can be used as a surrogate marker for HPV detection. Twenty-seven papilloma specimens (19 inverted [IPs], 6 exophytic [EPs], 1 oncocytic [OP] and 1 mixed) were collected from 23 patients. Purified SP DNA extracts were tested for HPV by PCR using GP5 +/GP6 + primers; HPV genotyping was performed by dot blot hybridization. PCR positive specimens were screened for HPV by biotinyl-tyramide-based chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH). Immunohistochemsistry (IHC) for the HPV L1 capsid protein and for p16(INK4a) was performed on all specimens. HPV was detected by PCR in 16/27 (59.3%) SPs; 9/19 (47.4%) IPs; 6/6 (100%) EPs [p = 0.051], and 1/1 (100%) mixed SP. HPV was not detected in the single OP. High risk genotypes were detected in 4/9 IPs (44.4%) and 0/6 EPs (0%) [p = 0.10]. Seven of 16 PCR positive SPs were also CISH positive for HPV: 5/6 EPs (83.3%) and 1/9 IP (11.1%) [p = 0.01]. IHC for the L1 capsid protein was positive in 2 SPs (1 EP and 1 mixed). p16(INK4a) staining was seen in 14/16 (87.5%) PCR positive SPs and in 10/11 (90.9%) PCR negative SPs (p = 1.00). In summary, this study demonstrates a strong association between HPV and EPs, however, its role in IPs remains less well-defined. Further, p16(INK4a) is not a useful surrogate marker for HPV detection across the various SPs.
