Abstract:
Dendritic cells(DC)present telomerase reverse transcriptase(hTERT)to T lymphocytes, stimulating specific reactions of cytotoxic T cells and CD4 + T cells. Researches on the relationship between natural killer(NK)cells and telomerase of tumor cells are scarce. DC and NK cells act together promoting antitumor responses and possibly participate in anti-tumor immune responses with telomerase.
