Endogenous Retroviruses in Human DNA Hold Key to Fighting Cancer, Says Study

Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) that “parasitize” human DNA may hold the key to the fight against cancer. (Schematic / Piqsels) Scientists have discovered an endogenous retrovirus (ERV) that has “parasitic” on human DNA for millions of years and may hold the key to fighting or even preventing cancer. When cancer cells in the human body are … Read more
