Incidence of detection of mixed HCMV different gB and gN genotypes in non-IBC and IBC carcinoma tissues is shown. (A) Agarose gel electrophoresis for nested multiplex PCR showed mixed presence of different HCMV gB genotypes. Lane C− represents negative control; lanes 1 and 2 represent gB-1 + gB-2 (420 bp + 613 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively. Lanes 3 and 4 represent gB-1 + gB-3 (420 bp + 190 bp) non-IBC and IBC, respectively. Lanes 5 and 6 represent gB-1 + gB-4 (420 bp + 465 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively. Lanes 7 and 8 represent gB-2 + gB-3 (613 bp + 190 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively. Lanes 9 and 10 represent gB-2 + gB-4 (613 bp + 465 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively. (B) Agarose gel electrophoresis for multiplex PCR showed mixed infection with different HCMV gN genotypes. Lane C− represents negative control, lanes 1 and 2 represent gN-1 + gN-2 (283 bp + 380 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively, lanes 3 and 4 represent gN-1 + gN-3b (283 bp + 214 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively, lanes 5 and 6 represent gN-1 + gN-4b/c (283 bp + 244 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively, lanes 7 and 8 represent gN-2 + gN-4b/c (380 bp + 244 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively, and lanes 9 and 10 represent gN-3b + gN-4b/c (214 bp + 244 bp) in non-IBC and IBC, respectively. (C) Bars represent the incidence of mixed infection with different HCMV gB genotypes in non-IBC and IBC carcinoma tissues as detected by multiplex PCR. (D) Bars represent the incidence of mixed infection with different HCMV gN genotypes. Non-IBC bar represents the percentage of mixed gN genotypes infections in non-IBC and IBC carcinoma tissues as detected by multiplex PCR. *Indicates a significant p value as determined by Fisher’s exact test.
