Increased expression of human endogenous retrovirus K in endomyocardial biopsies from patients with cardiomyopathy – a transcriptomics meta-analysis

Abstract Most studied, investigating transcriptional changes in myocardial biopsies focus on human genes. However, the presence and potential consequence of persistent expression of viral genes within the myocardium is unclear. The aim of the study was to analyze viral gene expression in RNAseq data...
