Telomeric antisense oligonucleotides reduce premature aging phenotypes in telomerase mutant zebrafish
2025-05-27
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase activity is restricted in somatic cells, resulting in progressive telomere shortening. Telomere erosion eventually activates the DNA damage response (DDR), inducing cell-cycle arrest and cellular senescence or apoptosis. We previously reported that telomere dysfunction induces the transcription of telomeric non-coding RNAs (tncRNAs) which are critical mediators of DDR activation. Blocking tncRNAs with t...
