Published in 2022 at "Journal of Medical Virology"

DOI: 10.1002/jmv.28350

Abstract: Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVs) are viral sequences integrated into the human genome, resulting from the infection of human germ‐line cells by ancient exogenous retroviruses. Despite losing their replication and retrotransposition abilities, HERVs appear to have… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Biological Trace Element Research"

DOI: 10.1007/s12011-018-1605-6

Abstract: Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are semi-conserved subtypes of long-terminal repeats containing retrotransposons that constitute approximately 8% of the genome. Under pathological conditions, the expression of HERVs is also affected by epigenetic modifications. The extent to… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Molecular Biotechnology"

DOI: 10.1007/s12033-017-0057-0

Abstract: In the presented assay, we elaborated a method for distinguishing sequences that are genetically closely related to each other. This is particularly important in a situation where a fine balance of the allele abundance is… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Medical hypotheses"

DOI: 10.1016/j.mehy.2019.109404

Abstract: Despite strong evidence for the heritability of major depressive disorder (MDD), efforts to identify causal genes have been disappointing. Furthermore, although there is strong support for life stress as a major predictor of MDD, there… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-22734-7

Abstract: Human endogenous retrovirus (HERV) sequences make up at least 8% of the human genome. Transcripts originating from these loci as well as proteins encoded by them have been detected in various tissues. HERVs are believed… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Viral immunology"

DOI: 10.1089/vim.2022.0090

Abstract: Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are estimated to comprise ∼8% of the entire human genome, but the vast majority of them remain transcriptionally silent in most normal tissues due to accumulated mutations. However, HERVs can be… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Neuro-oncology"

DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noab142

Abstract: Accounting for approximately 8% of the human genome, Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVs) have been implicated in a variety of cancers including gliomas. In normal cells, tight epigenetic regulation of HERVs prevent aberrant expression; however, in… read more here.
