Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres: A Prognostic Paradox in Cancer

Telomere maintenance enables unlimited cell proliferation by counteracting telomere erosion. While the majority of tumors activate telomerase, a significant subset—approximately 10–15%—utilizes alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT), a recombination-based mechanism. ALT-positive cancers are clas...
