The hormonal status of the host influences viral and chemical carcinogen-induced mammary tumorigenesis in several indirect ways. The effects of a high-fat diet on mouse mammary tumorigenesis are very limited and are convincing only for mice infected by the high-oncogenic mammary tumour virus. The relation between fat content in the diet, the hormonal status of the host and mammary tumour virus function has still to be explored.
