Effect of aging on the transcriptomic changes associated with the expression of the HERV-K (HML-2) provirus at 1q22

Effect of aging on the transcriptomic changes associated with the expression of the HERV-K (HML-2) provirus at 1q22

Abstract Background The human genome contains remnants of ancient retroviral infections called human endogenous retroviruses (HERV). Their expression is often observed in several diseases of autoimmune or inflammatory nature. However, the exact biological mechanisms induced by HERVs are still poorly...
