One of the GRG regulars raised the suggestion that perhaps we don't see increased cancer risk in mice following telomerase therapy - and that's after the research group in question dropped the addition of tinkering with P53, and moved to straight telomerase overexpression, interestingly - because the immune system improvement means that there is more and better cancer immunosurveillance going on. I'm not aware of any earnest data to support or contradict that hypothesis, however.
- forloop 10y agoThanks!
- lunula 10y agoWhat's GRG? Do you have a link to the comment?
- reasonattlm 10y agoThe Gerontology Research Group, originally organized by the late Stephen Coles. The mailing list is a watering hole of sorts for the gerontology community and some of the surrounding advocates and entrepreneurs, though much less so now than used to be the case. It is a closed list, so no link, I'm afraid.
