Abstract

RNA VIRUSES related to those causing tumours in chickens and mice have now been found in many other species¹. In some, such as the cat, there is strong evidence that the viruses are causative agents of cancer in the natural hosts^2-4. The same studies have raised the possibility that man may also carry such viruses, perhaps in a more covert form¹. There have been reports of "virus-like" particles in human plasma⁵ and, in one case, in a liposarcoma in tissue culture⁶.
