Oncogenic viruses and their role in tumor formation [PDF]
Oncogenic viruses trigger persistent infections, which can stimulate uncontrolled cell growth by inducing cell transformation. Different oncogenic viruses use different mechanisms for infecting cells.

Differential Regulation of Cellular FAM111B by Human Adenovirus C Type 5 E1 Oncogenes
The adenovirus type 5 (HAdV-C5) E1 transcription unit encodes regulatory proteins that are essential for viral replication and transformation. Among these, E1A and E1B-55K act as key multifunctional HAdV-C5 proteins involved in various steps of the viral

The Role of microRNAs, Long Non-coding RNAs, and Circular RNAs in Cervical Cancer
Prolonged infection of uterine cervix epithelium with human papillomavirus (HPV) and constitutive expression of viral oncogenes have been recognized as the main cause of the complex molecular changes leading to transformation of cervical epithelial cells.

The eEF1A proteins: at the crossroads of oncogenesis, apoptosis and viral infections.
Eukaryotic translation elongation factors 1 alpha, eEF1A1 and eEF1A2, are not only translation factors, but also pleiotropic proteins that are highly expressed in human tumors, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer and lung cancer.

Liver Cell Transformation in Chronic HBV Infection
Epidemiological studies have provided overwhelming evidence for a causal role of chronic HBV infection in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the molecular mechanisms underlying virally-induced tumorigenesis remain largely debated.

In vivo antagonistic role of the Human T-Cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 regulatory proteins Tax and HBZ.
Adult T cell leukemia (ATL) is an aggressive malignancy secondary to chronic infection by the human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection. Two viral proteins, Tax and HBZ, play central roles in ATL leukemogenesis.

Epstein-Barr virus provides a new paradigm: a requirement for the immediate inhibition of apoptosis. [PDF]
DNA viruses such as herpesviruses are known to encode homologs of cellular antiapoptotic viral Bcl-2 proteins (vBcl-2s), which protect the virus from apoptosis in its host cell during virus synthesis.

Viral DNA in Polyoma- and SV40-Transformed Cell Lines [PDF]
It is clear that cells transformed by the small DNA-containing viruses, polyoma virus (Py) and SV40, harbor the viral DNA since they contain viral mRNA,1 and some lines even yield infectious virus after fusion with cells able to support the multiplication of the virus.2, 3 Very little is known, however, about the state of the viral DNA in these cells ...

Viral genome integration of canine papillomavirus 16
Papillomaviruses infect humans and animals, most often causing benign proliferations on skin or mucosal surfaces. Rarely, these infections persist and progress to cancer.
