Using tobacco products or regularly being around tobacco smoke increases the risk of cancer Smokers are more likely than nonsmokers to develop cancer of the lung, larynx, mouth, esophagus, bladder, kidney, throat, stomach, pancreas, cervix, or cancer that starts in blood cells Tobacco use Tobacco use is the most preventable cause of death Each year more than 180,000 Americans die from cancer that is related to tobacco use 7

Exposure to UV radiation Ultraviolet (UV) radiation comes from the sun, sunlamps, and tanning booths UV rays cause early aging of the skin and damage that can lead to skin cancer 8

Viruses Being infected with certain viruses of bacteria may increase the risk of developing cancer: Hepatitis B and C Liver cancer can develop after many years of infection with hepatitis B or C Human papillomavirus (HPV) Main cause of cervical cancer has been linked to risk factor for other types of cancer 12

This material is protected by United States copyright law, and includes content owned by Discovery Education, The Val Skinner Foundation, and Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. Viruses Being infected with certain viruses of bacteria may increase the risk of developing cancer: Human T-cell leukemia/lymphoma virus (HTLV-1) Increases risk of lymphoma and leukemia Human herpes virus 8 (HHV8) Risk factor for Kaposi’s sarcoma, a rare cancer Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) Linked to increased risk of lymphoma 13

Viruses Being infected with certain viruses of bacteria may increase the risk of developing cancer: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) HIV doesn’t cause cancer but enables cancer formation. Individuals with HIV infection are at greater risk of cancers such as lymphoma or Kaposi’s sarcoma 14
