Whole genome sequencing of 51 breast cancers reveals that tumors are devoid of bovine leukemia virus DNA.

Retrovirology - 4 Nov 2016

Gillet Nicolas A, Willems Luc

Abstract excerpt

Controversy exists regarding the association of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) and breast cancer. PCR-based experimental evidence indicates that BLV DNA is present in breast tissue and that as many as 37% of cancer cases may be attributable to viral exposure. Since this association might have major consequences for human health, we evaluated 51 whole genomes of breast cancer samples for the presence of BLV DNA....
