Cancer-Causing Viruses and Their Inhibitors
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-1-138-37483-6 (ISBN)
The book begins with an overview of the oncoviruses discovered to date and includes a brief description of their structures, genotypes, replication, and mechanisms of infection leading to cancers. It then explores several of these viruses in detail, including:
Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1)
Hepatitis C virus (HCV)
Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)
Human papilloma virus (HPV)
Human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8)/Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpes virus (KSHV)
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV/AIDS)
Oncolytic viruses
This book is an essential reference for those working in virology, oncology, and biotechnology. The discoveries presented will enable researchers and clinicians to optimize both historical and current approaches to anti-viral therapies.
