Transposable Elements and Their Epigenetic Regulation in Mental Disorders: Current Evidence in the Field

Transposable elements (TEs) are highly repetitive DNA sequences in the human genome that are the relics of previous retrotransposition events. Although the majority of TEs are transcriptionally inactive due to acquired mutations or epigenetic processes, around 8% of TEs exert transcriptional activit...
