Genetic Variants of the <i>TERT</i> Gene, Telomere Length, and Circulating <i>TERT</i> as Prognostic Markers in Rectal Cancer Patients

Genetic Variants of the <i>TERT</i> Gene, Telomere Length, and Circulating <i>TERT</i> as Prognostic Markers in Rectal Cancer Patients

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the <i>TERT</i> gene can affect telomere length and <i>TERT</i> expression and have been associated with risk and/or outcome for several tumors, but very few data are available about their impact on rectal cancer. Eight SNPs (rs273610...
