A New Mouse Model of Virus-Driven Liver Cancer May Open the Door to Better Diagnosis and Treatments
 More than three-quarters of all cases of liver cancer worldwide are associated with chronic viral hepatitis but scientists have been limited in their ability to model how these viruses lead to cancer. In the new study, a Rockefeller team showed that mice infected with an engineered version of a rat virus develop liver inflammation, scarring, and ultimately cancer similar to that seen in humans with viral hepatitis-associated liver cancer. The new mouse model can be used to study how liver virus infection leads to cancer as well as to test treatments.
