Downregulation of hTERT: an important As2O3 induced mechanism of apoptosis in myelodysplastic syndrome.

Two myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) cell lines, MUTZ-1 and SKM-1 cells, were used to study the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on hematological malignant cells. As2O3 induced this two cell lines apoptosis via activation of caspase-3/8 and cleavage of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a DNA repa...
