2021-02-22
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Type 1 long interspersed elements, or LINE-1, are the only active retroelements in human cells. The retrotransposition process of LINE-1 can trigger the activation of the innate immune system and has been proposed to play a role in the development of several autoimmune diseases, including Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS). In contrast, all known AGS-associated pr...
