12 mar 2023 · Key takeaways. Telomeres are combinations of DNA and protein at the end of a chromosome that get shorter as you get older. Some research has linked shorter telomere length to an increased...
17 lut 2022 · This dataset offers many new opportunities to explore associations between leukocyte telomere length and other traits relevant to human aging and health.
1 lis 2023 · The link between telomere dysfunction, hallmarks of aging and incidence of age-related diseases has spawned interest in telomerase recovery therapy as a potential anti-aging strategy.
14 lut 2022 · Telomere shortening and damage are recognized causes of cellular senescence and ageing. Several human conditions associated with normal ageing are precipitated by accelerated telomere...
Background. Although telomerase has potential for age-related disease intervention, the overexpression of telomerase in about 90% of cancers, and in HIV virus reservoirs, cautions against se in anti-aging telomerase therapeutics. While multiple reviews document the canonical function of telomerase for maintenance of telomeres, as well as an ...
16 maj 2017 · Studies have demonstrated a direct correlation between telomere length and life expectancy, stress, DNA damage, and onset of aging-related diseases. This review discusses the most important factors that influence our telomeres.
14 sty 2021 · This review provides an overview of the history and current state of telomere research, highlights mechanistic connections between telomere dysfunction and aging hallmarks, and examines the seemingly pervasive roles of telomeres and telomerase in driving hallmarks of aging, progeria syndromes, and common age-associated diseases such as ...
