Title:Repeat-element driven activation of proto-oncogenes in human malignancies
Creators Name:Lamprecht, B., Bonifer, C. and Mathas, S.
Abstract:Recent data demonstrated that the aberrant activity of endogenous repetitive elements of the DNA in humans can drive the expression of proto-oncogenes. This article summarizes these results and gives an outlook on the impact of these findings on the pathogenesis and therapy of human cancer.
