High prevalence of mouse mammary tumor virus-like gene sequences in breast cancer samples of Iranian women
3 Oct 2017
Abstract excerpt
Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) is considered to be responsible for breast tumor development in mice. In several instances sequences homologous to the genome of this virus have been reported in human breast cancer samples. Here we aimed to evaluate MMTV involvement in human breast cancer development. DNA was extracted from 118 formalin fixed and paraffin embedded malignant (n = 59) and benign (n = 59) breast...
