Melatonin down-regulates hTERT expression induced by either natural estrogens (17beta-estradiol) or metalloestrogens (cadmium) in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells.

abstract：:Modern protocols of concomitant chemo/radiotherapy provide a very effective strategy to treat certain types of tumors. High-linear energy transfer (LET) radiations, on the other hand, have an increased efficacy against cancer with low radiosensibility and critical localization.
