Contents
1. Mouse mammary tumor virus/ 2. Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus/ 3. Avian leukosis virus/ 4. Abelson murine leukemia virus/ 5. Human T-cell leukemia virus/ 6. Feline leukemia virus/ 7. Murine leukemia virus/ 8. Spleen focus-forming virus/ 9. Koala retrovirus/ 10. Human immunodeficiency virus/ Index/
* This monograph provides an intriguing set of chapters on the many facets of retroviral involvement in cancers arising in a variety of organisms from fish to humans. Each chapter is written by experts in the field and relates recent work to previous experimental data. Retroviruses use many different mechanisms to induce cancers, ranging from activation of microRNAs, inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, activation or modifications of proto-oncogenes, as well as expression of viral proteins that manipulate cell signaling and the immune system. *

* Epigenetics refers to DNA and chromatin modifications that persist from one cell division to the next despite a lack of change in the underlying DNA sequence. It is an emergent field since its implication in physiological and disease processes is now widely accepted. The effects of epigenetics play an important role in development but can also arise stochastically with aging. *
