Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus-like RNA Transcripts and DNA Are Found in Affected Cells of Human Breast Cancer

2004-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Identifiable risk factors for the development of breast cancer include age, diet, family history, and lifetime estrogen exposure. An infectious agent (mouse mammary tumor virus; MMTV) is known to cause murine breast tumors and may be involved in the pathogenesis of human disease. Multiple studies have detected MMTV-like sequences in 30 to 60% of breast cancer samples and up to 1.8% of samples from normal...
