TERT Promoter Methylation Is Oxygen-Sensitive and Regulates Telomerase Activity

Telomere repeats protect linear chromosomes from degradation, and telomerase has a prominent role in their maintenance. Telomerase has telomere-independent effects on cell proliferation, DNA replication, differentiation, and tumorigenesis.

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Multi‐Cohort Analysis Reveals Genetic Predispositions to Clonal Hematopoiesis as Mutation‐Specific Risk Factors for Stroke

Advanced Genetics, Volume 6, Issue 1, March 2025.
This study comprehensively evaluated the differential effect of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) mutations on the risk of various stroke subtypes and functional recovery. It shows that TET2 is associated with small vessel stroke possibly via a pro‐inflammatory pathway. Abstract Recent observational studies have found an association between Clonal Hematopoesis

The role of the cell attachment in the regulation of telomerase during keratinocyte differentiation

, 2010
PhDThe catalytic subunit of telomerase TERT has non-canonical functions, which are independent of telomere elongation and sometimes telomerase activity.

The differentiation status of primary gonadal germ cell tumors correlates inversely with telomerase activity and the expression level of the gene encoding the catalytic subunit of telomerase

BMC Cancer, 2002
Background The activity of the ribonucleoprotein enzyme telomerase is detectable in germ, stem and tumor cells. One major component of telomerase is human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), which encodes the catalytic subunit of telomerase.

Cell cycle-dependent modification of Pot1 and its effects on telomere function [PDF]

, 2009
Telomere functions are tightly controlled throughout the cell cycle to allow telomerase access while suppressing a bona fide DNA damage response (DDR) at linear chromosome ends.

Conditional immortalization of human B cells by CD40 ligation [PDF]

, 2008
It is generally assumed that human differentiated cells have a limited life-span and proliferation capacity in vivo, and that genetic modifications are a prerequisite for their immortalization in vitro.

Relationship between Dyskerin Expression and Telomerase Activity in Human Breast Cancer

Cellular Oncology, 2008
The nucleolar protein dyskerin is involved in the modification of specific uridine residues to pseudouridine on ribosomal and small nuclear RNAs and in the stabilization of the telomerase RNA component (TERC).

Functional identification and mapping of a gene that represses telomerase hTERT transcription in prostate cancer cells

, 2010
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Telomerase is present in over 90% of tumour tissues and immortalized cells and is tightly regulated in most normal somatic cells.

Control of gene expression in prostate epithelial cell differentiation hierarchy [PDF]

, 2012
The aim of present investigation is to elucidate the complex stem cell (SC) dynamics within prostate cancer, which can be exploited to design novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for the management of prostate cancer.
