Telomere length attrition, a marker of biological senescence, is inversely correlated with triglycerides and cholesterol in South Asian males with type 2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
South Asians have a higher risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) than white Caucasians, for a given BMI. Premature biological ageing, assessed by reduction in telomere length (TL), may be mediated by factors resulting ...

Telomere length comparison between oral cells and blood cells among neonates

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2019
Telomere length, measured from blood cells, is commonly used as the standard telomere length of the whole body. The relationship between blood telomere length and oral telomere length is still unclear, especially among neonates.

Telomere length determinants in childhood [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (CCLM), 2019
Abstract Telomere length (TL) is a dynamic marker that reflects genetic predispositions together with the environmental conditions of an individual. It is closely related to longevity and a number of pathological conditions. Even though the extent of telomere research in children is limited compared to that of adults, there have been a ...

Accelerated telomere attrition is associated with relative household income, diet and inflammation in the pSoBid cohort [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: It has previously been hypothesized that lower socio-economic status can accelerate biological ageing, and predispose to early onset of disease.

Rate of telomere shortening and cardiovascular damage: a longitudinal study in the 1946 British Birth Cohort. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Cross-sectional studies reported associations between short leucocyte telomere length (LTL) and measures of vascular and cardiac damage. However, the contribution of LTL dynamics to the age-related process of cardiovascular (CV) remodelling remains ...

Telomere length and incident atrial fibrillation - data of the PREVEND cohort.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
BackgroundThe incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) increases with age. Telomere length is considered a marker of biological ageing. We investigated the association between leukocyte telomere length and incident AF in the Dutch Prevention of Renal and ...
