Abstract
There are more than 100 types of human pathogenic viruses, with seven currently known oncogenic viruses (Hulo et al., 2011). Hepatitis B (HBV)/C (HCV) viruses (Mohamed et al., 2023) and human papillomavirus (Wee et al., 2024) are pathogens of public health concern not only in Malaysia but also in many other countries, while Burkitt's lymphoma (Epstein-Barr virus) and Kaposi's sarcoma (Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus) pose serious complications for AIDS patients (Carbone et al., 2022).
