Suppression of murine type-C RNA virogenes by type-specific oncornavirus vaccines: prospects for prevention of cancer. 1976

R J Huebner, and R V Gilden, and W T Lane, and R Toni, and R W Trimmer, and P R Hill

Immunization of crossbred and F1 mice with combined killed and live Gross leukemia virus AKR type-C viral vaccines suppressed endogeneous N-type AKR virus up to 10,000-fold for significant periods during early life. Since several previous studies in the same and similar crossbred systems revealed direct correlations between low and high levels of type-C virus early in life with low and high incidences of leukemia and other cancers later in life, we believe that prospects for suppression of spontaneous neoplasms are good; however, 8-14 months will be required to achieve the final results. Should cancers be prevented by serotype-specific vaccines, such evidence would provide conclusive proof of endogenous viral etiology.

D012190 Retroviridae Family of RNA viruses that infects birds and mammals and encodes the enzyme reverse transcriptase. The family contains seven genera: DELTARETROVIRUS; LENTIVIRUS; RETROVIRUSES TYPE B, MAMMALIAN; ALPHARETROVIRUS; GAMMARETROVIRUS; RETROVIRUSES TYPE D; and SPUMAVIRUS. A key feature of retrovirus biology is the synthesis of a DNA copy of the genome which is integrated into cellular DNA. After integration it is sometimes not expressed but maintained in a latent state (PROVIRUSES).
