Does mouse mammary tumor-like virus cause human breast cancer? Applying Bradford Hill criteria postulates

2020-10-31

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Background The role of mouse mammary tumor-like virus (MMTV-like virus) in human breast cancer (BC) has already been widely investigated worldwide with conflicting results. Although the researchers tried to establish the link between MMTV-like virus and BC through the statistical meta-analysis of the previous studies associating MMTV-like virus with BC, they failed to establish a more reliable link due to...
