NAC selectively inhibit cancer telomerase activity: A higher redox homeostasis threshold exists in cancer cells

Telomerase activity controls telomere length, and this plays an important role in stem cells, aging and tumors. Antioxidant was shown to protect telomerase activity in normal cells but inhibit that in cancer cells, but the underlying mechanism is elusive. Here we found that 7721 hepatoma cells held...
