Telomerase promoter mutations in human immunodeficiency virus-related conjunctiva neoplasia
Background Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the conjunctiva is a common cancer in Africa mainly associated with solar ultraviolet (UV) exposure and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

Zinc Exposure Causes Disulfidptosis to Induce Miscarriage by Up‐Regulating GATA1/METTL1/SLC7A11 Axis
Zn exposure up‐regulates GATA1, promoting GATA1‐mediated METTL1 and SLC7A11 transcription. It also enhances METTL1‐mediated m7G modification on SLC7A11 mRNA, increasing SLC7A11 mRNA stability. Ultimately, Zn exposure up‐regulates SLC7A11 at both transcriptional and post‐transcriptional levels, causing disulfidptosis. Knockdown of murine Slc7a11, Gata1,

Telomerase reverse transcriptase subunit immunoreactivity [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDTelomerase, a ribonucleoprotein complex that maintains telomeric DNA, has been detected in 67–93% of prostate carcinomas by telomeric repeat‐amplification protocol assay (involving polymerase chain reaction). One study used in situ hybridization in nine patients; however, to date, no immunohistochemical results have been published ...

An implantable hydrogel is designed to hold gene transfection agents engineered to turn early recurrent tumor cells into generators of synthetic EVs. These synthetic EVs can express engineered miR‐26a (E‐miR‐26a) for highly sensitive detection and PD‐1 (a PD‐L1‐blocking agent) for therapeutic intervention, thereby enabling early detection and ...

Expression of Telomerase Activity, Human Telomerase RNA, and Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase in Gastric Adenocarcinomas [PDF]
Telomerase is an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase that synthesizes TTAGGG telomeric DNA onto chromosome ends to compensate for sequence loss during DNA replication. It has been detected in 85-90% of all primary human cancers, implicating that the telomerase seems to be reactivated in tumors and that such activity may play a role in the tumorigenic process.

The simultaneous effect of valproic acid and gamma radiation on telomerase activity and bax and Bcl-2 protein levels in MCF-7 breast cancer cell line [PDF]
Background: Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent types of cancer. Factors such as ionizing radiation and chemotherapeutic agents can trigger apoptosis and cancer cell death.
