Aging CellABSTRACTRecent studies have reported that the spaceflight environment lengthens leukocyte telomeres. We propose that this baffling finding reflects changes in the composition of leukocyte subsets rather than an actual increase in telomere length within individual leukocytes.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT SHOX gene haploinsufficiency is associated with Léri‐Weill dyschondrosteosis (LWD) or idiopathic short stature (ISS) and could be caused by the structural and point mutations in the coding region and by the deletions in SHOX gene regulatory sequences. The role of the duplications in regulatory sequences is ambivalent.

PLoS Genetics, 2006 Telomere length-variation in deletion strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used to identify genes and pathways that regulate telomere length. We found 72 genes that when deleted confer short telomeres, and 80 genes that confer long telomeres relative ...

TINF2 Gene Mutation in a Patient with Pulmonary Fibrosis
Case Reports in Pulmonology, 2016 Pulmonary fibrosis is a frequent manifestation of telomere syndromes. Telomere gene mutations are found in up to 25% and 3% of patients with familial disease and sporadic disease, respectively. The telomere gene TINF2 encodes an eponymous protein that is

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Woody breast compromises meat quality leading to reduced consumer appeal. Although its causes are unclear, improvements observed with certain dietary supplements suggest that gut health may influence woody breast development. Ribonucleotide reductase subunit RRM2 is vital for mitochondrial function and gastrointestinal integrity, and alteration in its ...

Association between telomere shortening and ageing during occupational exposure [PDF]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2012 Telomere length is considered as a biomarker of ageing, resulting in shortening during the process. The present investigation was an attempt to determine the relative telomere length in mechanical workshop workers.

Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances and hand osteoarthritis: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative
Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.Objective To explore whether biological levels of specific per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and a mixture of PFAS – reflecting the overall effect and accounting for correlations among each PFAS – relate to incident hand osteoarthritis (HOA) and progression.
