Immunogenicity of the Envelope Surface Unit of Human Endogenous Retrovirus K18 in Mice

Immunogenicity of the Envelope Surface Unit of Human Endogenous Retrovirus K18 in Mice

The triggers for the development of multiple sclerosis (MS) have not been fully understood to date. One hypothesis proposes a viral etiology. Interestingly, viral proteins from human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) may play a role in the pathogenesis of MS. Allelic variants of the HERV-K18 env gene...
