Abstract excerpt

Background: Telomeres are involved in chromosomal stability, cellular immortality and tumorigenesis. Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) is essential for the maintenance of telomere DNA length. Recently, a variable tandem-repeats polymorphism, MNS16A, located in the downstream region of the TERT gene, was reported to have an effect on TERT expression and telomerase activity. Previous studies have linked...
