Recently, ASF1a has been shown to be up-regulated in certain human malignancies and required for the expression of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), a factor essential for the immortal phenotype of cancer cells; however, its role in oncogenesis remains poorly defined.

In an effort to develop a new therapy for cancer and to improve antiprogrammed death inhibitor-1 (anti-PD-1) and anticytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein (anti-CTLA-4) responses, we have created a telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter-regulated oncolytic adenovirus rAd.sT containing a soluble transforming growth factor receptor II fused with human IgG Fc fragment (sTGFβRIIFc) gene.

In the present review article, we summarize the non-canonical functions of TERT with a special emphasis on its cross-talk with epigenetics: How TERT contributes to epigenetic alterations in physiological processes and cancer, and how the aberrant epigenetics in turn facilitate TERT expression and function, eventually promoting cancer either initiation or progression or both.

In addition, the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and hTERT up-regulation are related with cancer stemness features and drug resistance. mTOR inhibitor and TERT inhibitor combination may construct a novel strategy in cancer stem cells and it can make a double effect on telomerase enzyme.
