Bring It to an End: Does Telomeres Size Matter?

Telomeres and cardiovascular disease: does size matter?

Telomeres-the specialized DNA-protein structures at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes-are essential for maintaining genome stability and integrity and for extended proliferative life span in both cultured cells and in the whole organism. Telomerase and additional telomere-associated proteins are necessary for preserving telomeric DNA length. Age-dependent telomere shortening in most somatic ce...

Diabetes and pancreas size, does it matter?

Imaging studies of the pancreas provide valuable information on the pathophysiology of diabetes and direction of the clinical management. Comparative studies on the imaging and microscopic pathology will be required to validate the importance of the images.
