Abstract
Introduction: Genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is widespread among sexually active individuals. Several factors may contribute to increased risk of infection in pregnant women. The objective of this study was to determine the high-risk (HR-HPV) and low-risk (LR-HPV) oncogenic HPV genotypes among pregnant women in Ouagadougou.
Methodology: In this study, 100 endocervical samples were collected using a sterile swab on the sterile examination glove used during vaginal examination in pregnant women. DNA from each sample was amplified by PCR followed by hybridization using the HPV Direct Flow Chips kit detecting 36 HPV genotypes.
Results: Twenty-three percent (23%) of pregnant women had HPV infection. Of the 36 genotypes tested, 29 genotypes had been identified with a predominance of HPV 52 (10.34%), HPV 35 (6.89%), and HPV 82 (6.89%) for high risk and HPV 43 (10.34%), HPV 44/55 (6.90%), and HPV 62/81 (6.89%) for low risk.
Conclusion: HPV is common among pregnant women in Burkina Faso. However, the available vaccines do not cover the frequent genotypes found in this study. HPV could therefore constitute a threat for pregnant women and a risk of infection for the newborn.

期刊介绍:
BioMolecular Concepts is a peer-reviewed open access journal fostering the integration of different fields of biomolecular research. The journal aims to provide expert summaries from prominent researchers, and conclusive extensions of research data leading to new and original, testable hypotheses. Aspects of research that can promote related fields, and lead to novel insight into biological mechanisms or potential medical applications are of special interest. Original research articles reporting new data of broad significance are also welcome. Topics: -cellular and molecular biology- genetics and epigenetics- biochemistry- structural biology- neurosciences- developmental biology- molecular medicine- pharmacology- microbiology- plant biology and biotechnology.
