Wang Zhengyi, Wu Xiaoying
Abstract excerpt
Recent studies have found that somatic gene mutations and environmental tumor‑promoting factors are both indispensable for tumor formation. Telomeric repeat‑binding factor (TRF)2 is the core component of the telomere shelterin complex, which plays an important role in chromosome stability and the maintenance of normal cell physiological states. In recent years, TRF2 and its role in tumor formation have gradually...
