does her2 gene amplifcn combine with oncoproteins from HPV infection 2 cause her2 BC?

[Kat]

I too, wondered about this ... can someone clarify what the article is saying? Does HPV cause or just contribute to Her2/Neu BC? Also have question about a previous post/link....NSAIDs and the immune system. From what I read, I would think that we (cancer survivors) should perhaps not be on NSAIDs as they may inhibit the immune response needed to fight our cancer. Did I read that correctly? Can anyone help? Thanks. KAT

that HPV without her2 amplification doesn't form tumors, that her2 without HPV contribution only seemed to cause DCIS withit taking the additional contribution from HPV to actually cause it to invade.

This was done in a petri-dish on cell lines and by genetically breeding abnormal mice. It is not necessarily the case in humans, but could be.

Can't help with your other request.

Hope this helped.
