Hypothesis on the molecular basis of nononcogenic retroviral diseases.

Reviews of infectious diseases - 1 Jan 2000

Clements J E

Abstract excerpt

Oncogenic and nononcogenic retroviruses have similar structures and replicate by reverse transcription of their viral RNAs. The nononcogenic retroviruses are distinguished from the oncogenic retroviruses by virtue of the chronic inflammatory or degenerative disease they cause. These diseases include visna-maedi of sheep, caprine arthritis and encephalitis, equine infectious anemia, and chronic spongiform...
