Protein kinase C modulates telomerase activity in human cervical cancer cells
1 Sept 2001
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase, a ribonucleoprotein reverse transcriptase that extends telomeres of eukaryotic chromosomes is repressed in normal somatic cells but is activated during development and neoplasia. The regulation mechanism of telomerase activity in cancer cells is not clearly known. In this report, a possible affect of PKC on telomerase activity was examined using HeLa and CUMC-6 cervical cancer cell lines. Exposure of...
