This virus is responsible for almost 80% of Merkel cell carcinoma cases.

This virus has been found in more than 80 percent of all Merkel cell carcinomas.

The virus that may cause cancer is called oncogenic virus.

This virus has been found in up to 80% of Merkel cell carcinomas.

The Epstein-Barr gammaherpesvirus (EBV) is the first oncogenic virus discovered in human.

Many virologists and infectious disease specialists agree that the presence of lentiviruses or oncoviruses should preclude the use of an animal as a source of organs.

Also described are uses for the prophylaxis or treatment of a viral infection in a human or animal, and use for the prophylaxis or treatment of cancer caused by oncoviruses in a human or animal.

Also described are methods for the prophylaxis or treatment of a viral infection in a human or animal, and a method for the prophylaxis treatment of cancer caused by oncoviruses in a human or animal.

Cancer viruses come from a range of virus families, including both RNA and DNA viruses, and so there is no single type of " oncovirus " an obsolete term originally used for acutely transforming retroviruses.

Cancer viruses come from a range of virus families, including both RNA and DNA viruses, and so there is no single type of "oncovirus" (an obsolete term originally used for acutely transforming retroviruses).
