Telomeric RNA (TERRA) increases in response to spaceflight and high-altitude climbing
T. M. Al-turki, D. G. Maranon, et al.
This groundbreaking research conducted by Taghreed M. Al-Turki, David G. Maranon, and colleagues reveals how telomeric RNA, or TERRA, responds to radiation-induced DNA damage. With implications for aging and ALT-positive tumors, the study shows TERRA's crucial role in telomere stability across astronauts, climbers, and cellular models, suggesting new therapeutic strategies.
