Modulation of Telomerase Activity in Cancer Cells by Dietary Compounds: A Review
6 Feb 2018
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase is expressed in ~90% of human cancer cell lines and tumor specimens, whereas its enzymatic activity is not detectable in most human somatic cells, suggesting that telomerase represents a highly attractive target for selective cancer treatment.
