Expression of Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVs) in Breast Cancer: A Transcriptomic Study

2025-05-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are ancient viral elements inte-grated into the human genome, accounting for approximately 8% of its content. Recent findings suggest that HERVs, especially HERV-K (HML-2), play a significant role in the onset and advancement of breast cancer. Understanding HERV expression patterns could reveal new biomarkers and therapeutic targets in breast cancer. This...
