摘要
A hallmark feature of pluripotent stem cells is the ability to proliferate indefinitely (immortal phenotype). Despite reactivation of telomerase during iPSC derivation, there exists considerable heterogeneity in telomere length amongst established iPSC cell lines. Both telomerase-dependent and -independent mechanisms have now been shown to be important for continuous self-renewal of iPSC via the maintenance or extension of telomere length.
