| Core Tip |
Increased soluble human leukocyte antigen-G (sHLA-G) levels are consistently associated with poor prognosis in hepatitis C virus/hepatitis B virus -related hepatocellular carcinoma and human papillomavirus-driven cervical cancer, underscoring its potential as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker. High-risk human papillomavirus oncoproteins (E6 and E7) and hepatitis C virus proteins (core protein and nonstructural protein 3) may contribute to increased sHLA-G levels through cytokine-mediated immunosuppressive signalling pathways. The mechanisms by which sHLA-G-immunoglobulin-like transcript 2/immunoglobulin-like transcript 4 interactions modulate immune suppression in these virus-driven cancers remain incompletely understood. sHLA-G isoforms are primarily detected in plasma and other biological fluids using sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, providing a reliable method for both clinical and research applications. |
