A tumor necrosis factor-α responsive cryptic promoter drives overexpression of the human endogenous retrovirus <i>ERVK-7</i>
2025-03-13
Abstract excerpt
Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) shape human genome functionality and influence disease pathogenesis, including cancer. ERVK-7 , a significant ERV, acts as an immune modulator and prognostic marker in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Although ERVK-7 overexpression has been linked to the amplification of the 1q22 locus in approximately 10% of LUAD cases, it predominantly arises from alternative regulatory mechanisms. Ou...
