Telomere Length and Aging
Telomeres, the TTAGGG tandem repeats at the ends of chromosomes, become progressively shortened with each replication of cultured human somatic cells (reviewed in Wong and Collins (Wong & Collins 2003)) until a critical length is achieved, at which point the cell enters replicative senescence. This situation can be reversed by the enzyme named telomerase that is responsible for Telomere Length ...
متن کاملLeukocyte telomere length: the telomere tale continues.
In culture, replicating human somatic cells display progressive telomere shortening. Ultimately, such cells either undergo apoptosis or enter a state of replicative senescence that is triggered by critically shortened telomeres. Accordingly, telomere length is an index of both the replicative history and the replicative potential of human somatic cells in culture (1). Most replicating human som...
متن کاملTelomere length and reproductive aging
BACKGROUND Rate of reproductive aging may be related to rate of biological aging. Thus, indicators of aging, such as short telomere length, may be more frequent in women with a history suggestive of premature reproductive senescence. METHODS Telomere-specific quantitative PCR was used to assess telomere length in two groups of women with evidence of reproductive aging: (i) patients with idiop...
متن کاملtelomerase activity and telomere length in aml-m3 patients
introduction: the telomeric dna together with its associated proteins protects the chromosome ends from degradation or aberrant recombination. telomerase and telomere are closely associated with development of cancers. in this study we aim to investigate the significance of telomerase activity (ta) and telomere length (tl) in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (apl). methods: peripher...
متن کاملAssociations between Rotating Night Shifts, Sleep Duration, and Telomere Length in Women
BACKGROUND Telomere length has been proposed as a marker of aging. However, our knowledge of lifestyle risk factors determining telomere length is limited. METHODS We evaluated the associations between years of rotating night shifts, self-reported sleep duration, and telomere length in 4,117 female participants from the Nurses' Health Study. Telomere length in peripheral blood leukocytes was ...
