SCN8A and cervical carcinoma: In the present study we have found that the over expression of NaV1.6 channels is also conserved in CeCa biopsies positive to other high-risk HPV types, that together with our results in samples positive to HPV-16, allowed us to conclude that NaV1.6 channel over expression is a general characteristic of cervical carcinoma, regardless the associated HPV-type.
