Association between ALS and retroviruses: evidence from bioinformatics analysis
BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests retroviruses play a role in the pathophysiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Specifically, activation of ancient viral genes embedded in the human genome is theorized to lead to motor neuron degeneration. We explore whether connections exist between...
