Human Endogenous Retroviruses and Their Putative Role in Pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s Disease, Inflammation, and Senescence
The human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are ancient exogenous retroviruses that were embedded in the germline over 30 million years ago and underwent an endogenization process. They make up roughly 8% of the human genome. HERVs exhibit many physiological and non-physiological functions; for exampl...
