Correlation of the expression of human telomerase subunits with telomerase activity in normal skin and skin tumors
15 Nov 1999
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Telomerase activation is thought to be crucial for the continued growth or progression of cancer cells. Three major subunits of human telomerase, human telomerase RNA (hTR), telomerase-associated protein (TP1), and human telomerase catalytic subunit (hTERT) have been identified recently. In the current study, the expression of these telomerase subunits was examined in various human skin tumors and in...
