This review focuses on the impact of human papillomavirus (HPV) oncogenes on DNA repair pathways with a particular focus on how these relationships change as productive HPV infections transition to malignant lesions. We made specific efforts to incorporate advances in the understanding of HPV and DNA damage repair over the last 4 years. We apologize for any articles that we missed in compiling this report.
Keywords: DNA repair; HPV; cervical cancer.
