Small RNAs from mobile DNA vary with age in human brains

A computational analysis of postmortem human brains found age-related shifts in small RNAs from mobile DNA, with different patterns in Huntington’s and Parkinson’s…A computational analysis of postmortem human brains found age-related shifts in small RNAs from mobile DNA, with different patterns in Huntington’s and Parkinson’s disease.
