Characterization of Viral Particles Isolated from Primary Cultures of Human Breast Cancer Cells

15 Sept 2007

Abstract excerpt

The association of human breast cancer with sequences similar to the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) has been shown, but convincing evidence for the presence of viral particles in breast tumors has been lacking. We have described the complete proviral structure of a retrovirus in human breast cancer. This provirus, designated as human mammary tumor virus (HMTV), was 95% homologous to MMTV and revealed features...
