Deciphering human endogenous retrovirus expression in colorectal cancers: exploratory analysis regarding prognostic value in liver metastases
16 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Human Endogenous RetroVirus (HERV) expression in tumours reflects epigenetic dysregulation of cancer and an oncogenic factor through promoter/enhancer action on genes. While more than 50% of colorectal cancers develop liver metastases, HERV has not been studied in this context. METHODS: We collected 400 RNA-seq samples from over 200 patients with primary and liver metastases, including public data and...
