Telomerase Inhibition Combined with Other Chemotherapeutic Reagents to Enhance Anti-Cancer Effect
Genetic experiments using a dominant-negative form of human telomerase (DN-hTERT) demonstrated that telomerase inhibition can result in telomeric shortening followed by proliferation arrest and cell death by a...

Activity of a novel G-quadruplex-interactive telomerase inhibitor, telomestatin (SOT-095), against human leukemia cells: involvement of ATM-dependent DNA damage response pathways
The telomerase complex is responsible for telomere maintenance and represents a promising neoplasia therapeutic target. In order to determine whether G-quadruplex-interactive telomerase inhibitor, telomestatin...

Telomeres and telomerase in hematologic neoplasia
Normal hematopoietic cells express telomerase activity, however the presence of telomerase does not necessarily imply stable and thus unchanging telomere length. Gradual telomere loss with aging and rapid cycl...
