TERT's role in colorectal carcinogenesis.

Molecular carcinogenesis - 1 Jul 2013

Pellatt Andrew J, Wolff Roger K, Herrick Jennifer, Lundgreen Abbie, Slattery Martha L

Abstract excerpt

Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) is one of the main functional subunits of the telomerase enzyme, which functions to increase telomere length. Studies have suggested that TERT may be important to the etiology of colorectal cancer. In this study we evaluate seven TERT SNPs in 1555 incident colon cancer cases and 1956 matched controls and in 754 incident rectal cancer cases and 959 matched controls. We...
