Herpes can cause cancer
More than ten types of cancer are of direct viral origin. They develop after previously suffering viral diseases. The conclusion was made by scientists from the Petrovsky Russian Scientific Center for Surgery. Rossiyskaya Gazeta wrote about this.
Oncologists at the center have found that some viruses can be cancer triggers – triggering the emergence and development of malignant tumors.
They called hepatitis B and C viruses dangerous in this sense. They sometimes lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Epstein-Barr virus causes some types of lymphoma.
Herpes can cause Kaposi’s sarcoma.
The human papillomavirus sometimes causes cervical cancer and some head and neck tumors.
Merkel cell polyomavirus causes aggressive forms of skin cancer.
In Russia, they continue to actively study the viral nature of cancer in order to understand how to treat it.
