Telomerase inhibition regulates EMT mechanism in breast cancer stem cells.
CONCLUSION: Our obtained results indicated that telomerase inhibition affects the EMT mechanism. The targeted elimination of breast cancer stem cells by a telomerase inhibitor in cancer treatment may limit the mobility and stemness of cancer cells due to the EMT mechanism, thus may prevent metastasis.
