ROLE OF TELOMERES IN CAUSING CANCER AND TARGETING TELOMERASE IN TREATMENT OF CANCER AS BETTER THAN CONVENTIONAL THERAPY
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Telomere that is a part of chromosome can play a vital role in causing cancer in human beings by targeting that part the treatment becomes easy and majority of the investigations are showing that the activation/expression of hTERT in body is the main cause for the carcinoma condition that occurred in the patient. It has discussed about the percentage of cancer cases that has diagnosed with carcinoma condition occurred due to the expression of hTERT and also discussed about the therapies can be given are that can be used to target the telomeres to treat carcinomic stages in cancer patients.
