Abstract
⺠We evaluated a postulated role for estrogens in regulation of telomerase in T lymphocytes. ⺠T cells from females showed slightly greater telomerase induction with T cell receptor engagement. ⺠Estradiol did not directly change telomerase activity in resting or activated T cells. ⺠Our experiments exclude a direct effect of estradiol on telomerase induction in peripheral T cells.
