Human telomerase reverse transcriptase promotes the epithelial to mesenchymal transition in lung cancer cells by enhancing c-MET upregulation
23 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), the essential catalytic subunit of telomerase, is associated with telomere homeostasis to prevent replicative senescence and cellular aging. However, hTERT reactivation also has been linked to the acquisition of several hallmarks of cancer, although the underlying mechanism beyond telomere extension remains elusive. This study demonstrated that hTERT overexpression...
