26 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) plays a key role in the maintenance of chromosomal ends by adding telomeric repetitions (TTAGGG) and, thus, contributes to the preservation of chromosomal stability [ 1 ]. TERT expression is typically absent in normal somatic tissues. Notable exceptions are, besides spermatogonia, germinal center B-cells [ 2 , 3 ]. In contrast to non-malignant tissues, telomerase activity...
