Summary and implicationsy p
Telomerase is essential for telomere maintenance.Telomerase is essential for telomere maintenance.
Telomere shortening leads to cell death or senescence after many cell divisions.
Short telomeres inhibit tumor growth through apoptosis or senescence. Telomerase inhibitors may be effective in cancer
therapy.
Haploinsufficiency for telomerase causes telomere Haploinsufficiency for telomerase causes telomere shortening.
Short telomeres limit cell growth even in the gpresence of telomerase. Short telomeres may limit long term stem cell division.

I h it f h t t l h t Inheritance of short telomeres causes phenotypes even in wildtype animals (Wt* or occult genetic disease). Short telomeres may cause loss of tissue renewal in
