Abstract
Telomere su terminalne strukture linearnih kromosoma u eukariota koji sadrže ponavljajuću sekvencu. Njihova glavna funkcija je zaštita i pružanje stabilnosti kromosomskim krajevima. U većini humanih somatskih stanica sa svakom staničnom diobom, kromosomi kontinuirano postaju kraći i stanica ulazi u proces staničnog starenja. Suprotno tomu, u tumorskim stanicama aktivan je ribonukleoproteinski enzim telomeraza koji produžuje telomere i omogućuje im daljnju proliferaciju. Kod velikog broja tumora kao što su tumor dojke, tumor pluća, neuroblastom i melanom, telomeraza je eksprimirana u gotovo 85% tumorskih stanica, stoga je glavni cilj antitumorskih terapija upravo njena inhibicija. Do sada su razvijene razne metode za supresiju telomerazne aktivnosti, ali postoji potreba daljnjeg razvoja ovih antitumorskih terapija.
Abstract (english)
Telomeres are terminal structures of linear chromosomes in eukaryotes that contain a repetitive sequence. Their main function is to protect and provide stability to chromosome end regions. In most human somatic cells with each cell division, chromosomes continuosly become shorter and cells enter the cellular aging process. In contrast, tumor cells have active ribonucleoprotein enzyme telomerase which prolongs telomeres and allows them further proliferation. Enzyme telomerase is expressed in almost 85% of tumors (breast tumors, lung tumors, neuroblastoma and melanoma), so the main goal of the anticancer treatment is in its inhibition. So far, various methods have been developed to suppress telomerase activity, but there is a need for further development of these anticancer therapies.
