Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

6.5K
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand  RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...

Cancer Therapies

10.5K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Mouse Models of Cancer Study

6.6K
Mice have long served as models for studying human biology and pathology because of their phylogenetic and physiological similarity with humans. They are also easy to maintain and breed in the laboratory, and hence, many inbred strains are now available for research. Studies on mice have contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cancer biology.
The development of transgenic, knockout, and knock-in mice has led to an exponential increase in their use as model organisms in research,...

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Oncology
  • Rabbit Health

Background:

  • Neoplasia in rabbits was historically rare but is now reported more frequently.
  • Tumors can affect any organ system, with varying incidence rates across systems.
  • Predominant tumor sites in rabbits include the urogenital, hemolymphatic, and integumentary systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current knowledge on the etiopathogenesis of common rabbit neoplasms.
  • To outline clinical signs, diagnostic approaches, and treatment strategies for rabbit cancer.
  • To provide guidelines for diagnosing and managing oncologic patients in rabbits.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of reported neoplastic diseases in rabbits.
  • Synthesis of information on etiopathogenesis, clinical presentation, and diagnostics.
  • Compilation of current treatment modalities and management guidelines.

Main Results:

  • A significant increase in reported neoplastic disease in rabbits over recent decades.
  • Identification of key affected organ systems: urogenital, hemolymphatic, and integumentary.
  • Comprehensive overview of common rabbit cancers, their development, and clinical impact.

Conclusions:

  • Rabbit neoplasia is a growing concern in veterinary oncology.
  • Accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment are crucial for affected rabbits.
  • This review serves as a guide for veterinary professionals managing rabbit cancer cases.
