Question

How did telomerase respond to acute stress?

Expert Solution

Step 1

By lengthening telomeres and supporting cell growth and longevity, telomerase activity is critical for cell survival. The low amounts of telomerase activity in human leukocytes may now be measured. Chronic stress in individuals and chronic glucocorticoid exposure in vitro have both been linked to low basal telomerase activity. Changes in the numbers or percentages of monocytes, lymphocytes, and particular T cell types had no effect on telomerase activity.
