Multivitamin use and telomere length in women.
BACKGROUND Telomere length may be a marker of biological aging. Multivitamin supplements represent a major source of micronutrients, which may affect telomere length by modulating oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. OBJECTIVE The objective was to examine whether multivitamin use is associated with longer telomeres in women. DESIGN We performed a cross-sectional analysis of data from ...
متن کاملIs Leukocyte Telomere Length Related with Lung Cancer Risk?: A Meta-Analysis
Background: Epidemiological studies have probed the correlation between telomere length and the risk of lung cancer, but their findings are inconsistent in this regard. The present meta-analysis study has been carried out to demonstrate the association between relative telomere length in peripheral blood leukocytes and the risk of lung cancer using an established Q-PCR technique. Methods:...
متن کاملEffects of Highly Polluted Environment on Sperm Telomere Length: A Pilot Study
High environmental pressure may impair male fertility by affecting sperm quality, but the real effect remains controversial. Herein, we assessed the influence of environmental exposure on telomere length (TL) in both leukocytes (LTL) and sperm cells (STL). A pilot biomonitoring study was conducted in 112 clinically healthy, normospermic men living in various areas of Campania region (South of I...
متن کاملTelomere Length and Long-Term Endurance Exercise: Does Exercise Training Affect Biological Age? A Pilot Study
BACKGROUND Telomeres are potential markers of mitotic cellular age and are associated with physical ageing process. Long-term endurance training and higher aerobic exercise capacity (VO(2max)) are associated with improved survival, and dynamic effects of exercise are evident with ageing. However, the association of telomere length with exercise training and VO(2max) has so far been inconsistent...
متن کاملWork-Related Exhaustion and Telomere Length: A Population-Based Study
BACKGROUND Psychological stress is suggested to accelerate the rate of biological aging. We investigated whether work-related exhaustion, an indicator of prolonged work stress, is associated with accelerated biological aging, as indicated by shorter leukocyte telomeres, that is, the DNA-protein complexes that cap chromosomal ends in cells. METHODS We used data from a representative sample of ...
