Prevention of Tumor Formation by Latent Gammaherpesvirus Infection.
Recent reports suggested that chronic herpesvirus infection, as a constituent of the so-called virome, may not only exert harmful effects but may also be beneficial to the host, for example mediating increased resistance to secondary infections or to tumors.
