It is believed that extreme shortening of chromosomes due to genetic abnormalities may actually trigger cancer. Such frequent shortening of the telomeres may actually cause the telomerase enzyme to activate. This may sound like something good for the cell, but in reality, the telomerase can aid in preserving cancerous cells, giving them infinite life so that they may divide and proliferate.
