Targeting the NCOA3-SP1-TERT axis for tumor growth in hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2020
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a high mortality rate and lacks an effective therapeutic target. Elevated expression of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) is an important hallmark in cancers, but the mechanism by which TERT is activated ...

Telomerase reverse transcriptase activates transcription of miR500A to inhibit Hedgehog signalling and promote cell invasiveness

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2021
Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) maintains telomere homeostasis, thus ensuring chromosome stability and cell proliferation. In addition, several telomere‐independent functions of human TERT have been described.

Spatial and Volumetric Characteristics of Glioblastoma: Associations With Clinical Presentation and Survival

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective We aim to comprehensively analyze how regional tumor and edema characteristics are associated with clinical presentations and survival outcomes in a large cohort of glioblastoma patients. Methods Patients with IDH‐wildtype glioblastoma who received brain MRI from 2010 to 2023 were included.

A telomerase with novel non-canonical roles: TERT controls cellular aggregation and tissue size in Dictyostelium.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
Telomerase, particularly its main subunit, the reverse transcriptase, TERT, prevents DNA erosion during eukaryotic chromosomal replication, but also has poorly understood non-canonical functions. Here, in the model social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum,

Quiescence Exit of Tert+ Stem Cells by Wnt/β-Catenin Is Indispensable for Intestinal Regeneration

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Fine control of stem cell maintenance and activation is crucial for tissue homeostasis and regeneration. However, the mechanism of quiescence exit of Tert+ intestinal stem cells (ISCs) remains unknown. Employing a Tert knockin (TertTCE/+) mouse model, we

Clinical Impact of MGMT Promoter Methylation in IDH‐Mutant Gliomas: Influence of Threshold Selection and Clinical Confounding

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The clinical relevance of MGMT promoter methylation in IDH‐mutant gliomas remains controversial in the era of molecular classification. We aimed to systematically evaluate its clinical relevance by integrating quantitative assessment, cutoff exploration, and adjustment for clinical confounding.

Insights into the evolution of mammalian telomerase: Platypus TERT shares similarities with genes of birds and other reptiles and localizes on sex chromosomes

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2012
Background The TERT gene encodes the catalytic subunit of the telomerase complex and is responsible for maintaining telomere length. Vertebrate telomerase has been studied in eutherian mammals, fish, and the chicken, but less attention has been paid to ...

TERT promoter mutations lead to high transcriptional activity under hypoxia and temozolomide treatment and predict poor prognosis in gliomas. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
This study explored the effects of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter mutations on transcriptional activity of the TERT gene under hypoxic and temozolomide (TMZ) treatment conditions, and investigated the status and prognostic value of ...

Biomass Native Structure Into Functional Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Fenton‐Like Reactions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study indicates that eight biomasses with 2D flaky and 1D acicular structures influence surface O types, morphology, defects, N doping, sp2 C, and Co nanoparticles loading in three series of carbon, N‐doped carbon, and cobalt/graphitic carbon. This work identifies how these structural factors impact catalytic pathways, enhancing selective electron

BRAFV600E and TERT promoter mutations and their impact on recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma progression

open access: yesEndocrine Connections
Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most prevalent histological subtype of thyroid cancer. However, it remains unclear whether BRAFV600E, TERT promoter (TERT-p), and certain pathological markers, such as loss of polarity/loss of cell cohesiveness ...
