The Role of Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres Mechanism in Cancer: Translational and Therapeutic Implications
Telomere maintenance mechanisms (i.e., telomerase activity (TA) and the alternative lengthening of telomere (ALT) mechanism) contribute to tumorigenesis by providing unlimited proliferative capacity to cancer cells. Although the role of either telomere maintenance mechanisms seems to be equivalent i...
