Mesothelioma - Can Sv-40 Virus Cause It

The vast majority of cases of mesothelioma are caused by exposure to asbestos in the workplace or at home?.This is a common statement made by cancer, but you'll note does not indicate that all cases are caused by exposure to asbestos. There are cases where the asbestos is not involved. One that is attracting attention is whether the SV-40 virus could cause. SV-40 stands for Virus Simiun 40, ie, derived from the monkeys. How did this virus has become a concern for human beings?Well, polio was once a huge health problem. A vaccine was developed for it has been largely eradicated the disease. Oh, there was a small problem. The vaccine is grown on monkey kidneys. Some of the monkeys had contracted SV-40. While not affecting the efficacy of the vaccine, the virus did travel with him in some human hosts. So, what is the problem? Well, Mesothelioma is a form of cancer hotly investigated. One method of study that is looking at producing tumors. Thus, research began to discover something very strange. SV-40 was found in tumors of mesothelioma cancer in the patient reported no exposure to asbestos at any time in their life. Researchers began to wonder if the virus could be a cause of cancer in the absence of asbestos exposure. There have been many cases of mesothelioma that seemed to have no explanation as to the cause. Children as young as two have been diagnosed despite never have been exposed to asbestos despite the gestational age must be 20 years or older. Then there have been cases in some very remote areas of the world where no asbestos and no apparent physical cause at all. Could all this for the SV-40 virus is explained, the answer is clear and unclear. There are plenty of cases of mesothelioma from exposure to asbestos showing no indication that the virus is present. In turn, there are some cases where asbestos exposure was not reported, but the SV-40 virus is present in the cancerous tumor. At this point, there is simply no clear answer
