Cancer-causing viruses, also called oncoviruses, play a key role in
the development of certain cancers. They contribute to genetic
changes that disrupt the cell cycle machinery, interfering with
functions such as cell growth. Cancer-Causing Viruses and Their
Inhibitors presents a plethora of research from internationally
reputed contributors who discuss different types of oncoviruses,
their mechanisms of invasion and growth, and their life cycles. 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.
