Silencing of the hTERT gene through RNA interference induces apoptosis via Bax/Bcl-2 in human glioma cells

Glioma cells are characterized by their invasiveness and resistance to conventional therapeutics. The downregulation of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) can lead to decreased cell proliferation and/or the induction of apoptotic cell death in cancer cells but has rarely been reported in...
