1 Endogenous Retroviral elements in Disease: "PathoGenes" within the human genome. H. Perron 1. Geneuro, Geneva, Switzerland 2. Geneuro-Innovation, Lyon-France 3. Université Claude Bernard, Lyon, France Declared conflict of interest: Hervé Perron is CSO of Geneuro.
2 Background Science we are dealing with pathogens that are : neither viruses, nor produced by regular genes.

5 Long Terminal Repeats (LTRs) of retroviral genomes repeat same sequences on each extremity Short reads Real 5 Locus 3 Locus genome Discarded as 5 flanking region AATTACCGTA redundant sequences AATTACCGT.3 flanking region Taken as overlapping sequences from the junction between 5 and 3 Loci Reconstituted Genome 5 Locus Solo LTR 3 Locus in databases Endogenous retroviral sequences have not been aligned: a solitary LTR only is taken as a single sequence from a mere junction between two flanking regions
6 Role in Health or Disease Friend or Foe? The enemy within: dormant retroviruses awaken Michael E Engel & Scott W Hiebert Nature Medicine 16, (2010)
7 «Emerging Scientific Domain» Mobile genetic elements >45% of the Human genome (Highly repeated, Transposable and Retrotransposable elements) Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERV): 8% of the human genome Most are inactive, but active elements are persisting in human genomes The enemy within: dormant retroviruses awaken Michael E Engel & Scott W Hiebert Nature Medicine 16, (2010) Endogenous viruses: insights into viral evolution and impact on host biology Cédric Feschotte & Clément Gilbert Nature Reviews Genetics 13, (2012) distributed unequally in humans Jainy Thomas (Feschotte Lab/UTAH) The potential association with several diseases is beginning to be acknowledged Presentations in Sessions II, III & IV.
8 Locally activated by various environmental triggers, HERV-W may lead to different diseases Environmental triggers with different tropism for given cell type / organ Local MSRV-Env expression MSRV-Env Gray Matter CMV, Toxoplasma Inflammatory Psychoses % of cases? Peripheral Nerves CMV,? CIDP +/- 50% of cases? EBV, global priming effect on immune cells? White Matter HSV1, HHV6, VZV, Multiple Sclerosis % of cases TLR4 Inflammation Autoimmunity Cytotoxicity Other Diseases? Pancreas Enteroviruses, Coxsackie? Type 1 Diabetes % of cases?
9 Novel Domain & New Concepts: at the gene level 20th Century: Discovery of «environmental microbes» 21rst Century: Unraveling «genetic microbes»: endogenous viruses
10 Role in Health or Disease: MSRV versus Syncytin MSRV clone from MS retroviral particles Syncytin clone from Placenta RNA Cell surface (non-permeabilized) Transfected HEK cells Cytoplasm (permeabilized)
11 Amino acid differences in reference HERV-W envelopes Aligned Syncytin and MSRV-Env Protein amino-acid sequences Differences between Syncytin and MSRV HERV-W envelope proteins 4 amino acids deletion in Syncytin
