Viral Oncogenes, Noncoding RNAs, and RNA Splicing in Human Tumor Viruses
Viral oncogenes are responsible for oncogenesis resulting from persistent virus infection. Although different human tumor viruses express different viral oncogenes and induce different tumors, their oncoproteins often target similar sets of cellular tumor suppressors or signal pathways to immortalize and/or transform infected cells. Expression of the viral E6 and E7 oncogenes in papillomavirus,...
متن کاملCell Transformation by RNA Viruses: An Overview
Studies of oncogenic viruses have made seminal contributions to the molecular biology of cancer. Key discoveries include the identification of viral oncogenes and cellular proto-oncogenes, elucidation of signal transduction pathways, and identification of tumor suppressor genes. The origins of cancer virology began almost exactly one hundred years ago with the discovery of avian sarcoma and acu...
متن کاملHuman T Lymphotropic Virus Type I (HTLV-I) Oncogenesis: Molecular Aspects of Virus and Host Interactions in Pathogenesis of Adult T cell Leukemia/Lymphoma (ATL)
The study of tumor viruses paves the way for understanding the mechanisms of virus pathogenesis, including those involved in establishing infection and dissemination in the host tumor affecting immune-compromised patients. The processes ranging from viral infection to progressing malignancy are slow and usually insufficient for establishment of transformed cells that develop cancer in only ...
متن کاملSTAT3 as a Key Factor in Tumor Microenvironment and Cancer Stem Cell
Background Recent studies revealed that tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a decisive role in the regulation of tumor progression by manipulating tumor oncogenesis, angiogenesis and immune functions within tumor microenvironments. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), which is a point of convergence for numerous oncogenic signalling pathways, is constitutively activ...
متن کاملHuman Reoviruses Serotype 3 Effectively Target Huh-7 Cells
Abstract: Background and Aims: Huh-7 is a cell line that was derived from a liver tumor of a Japanese man. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is considered as a primary liver cancer. Highly resistant tumor to treatment which causes the death of many patients annually. Thus, targeting the cancer cells by using a new method could be effective in...
