Abstract

Presents a study which investigated whether estrogen receptor signaling may be responsible for telomerase activation in prostate epithelial cells. Link between maintenance of functional telomeres and human cancer; Description of the human telomerase expression and telomerase activity in normal and transformed prostate epithelial cells after 17Β-estradiol treatment; Effects of the selective aromatase inhibitor on telomerase activity.
