IFN‐γ/IRF‐1‐induced p27<sup><i>kip1</i></sup> down‐regulates telomerase activity and human telomerase reverse transcriptase expression in human cervical cancer
13 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase activation is regulated by the expression of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and is a key step in the development of human cancers. Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) signaling induces growth arrest in many tumors through multiple regulatory mechanisms. The p27 tumor suppressor protein inhibits the formation of tumors through the induction of cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis. We demonstrate...
