Genomic Characterization of Brain Metastases Reveals Branched Evolution and Potential Therapeutic Targets

TL;DR: Stricker et al. as discussed by the authors performed whole-exome sequencing of 86 matched brain metastases, primary tumors, and normal tissue and found potentially clinically informative alterations in the brain metastasis not detected in the matched primary-tumor sample.
Journal ArticleDOI

Telomerase maintains telomere structure in normal human cells.

TL;DR: The view that telomerase and telomere structure are dynamically regulated in normal human cells and that telomeres length alone is unlikely to trigger entry into replicative senescence is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissociation among in vitro telomerase activity, telomere maintenance, and cellular immortalization

TL;DR: It is shown that ectopic expression of the telomerase catalytic subunit (human telomersase reverse transcriptase or hTERT) and subsequent activation of telomer enzyme can allow postsenescent cells to proliferate beyond crisis, the last known proliferative blockade to cellular immortality.
