Living infectious agents with the same organic wall assembly of Precambrian early-life fossils discovered in Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumour and human cancer: Giant viruses or living protocells? Evaluating the effects of an anti-cancer vaccine in stray dogs, while challenging the mysteries around the RNA world

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumour (CTVT) along with Tasmanian Devil Facial Tumour and transmissible leukaemia in Mya Arenaria soft shell-clams are the only examples of contagious cancers occurring in nature. In particular, CTVT is the oldest contagious cancer present in the wild world. The attempts to detect a transmissible virus as a causative agent in these forms of con...
