Original Title:
Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVS) Transcriptomics in human breast cancer
Translated title:
Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVS) Transcriptomics in human breast cancer
Summary:
The human genome harbours a significant amount of sequences that stem from retroviral infections of the germline in evolutionarily ancient times, so-called human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs). Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are likely to take part in the physiopathology of breast cancer. This, to date, analysis examines the interaction between retroviruses and breast cancer, analyzing RNASeq datasets in order to study the overexpression of endogenous retroviruses in the human breast tissue of clinical interest.
