White Cell Telomere Length and Risk of Premature Myocardial Infarction

1 May 2003

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Biological age may be distinct from chronological age and contribute to the pathogenesis of age-related diseases. Mean telomeres lengths provide an assessment of biological age with shorter telomeres, indicating increased biological age. We investigated whether subjects with premature myocardial infarction (MI) had shorter leukocyte telomeres. METHODS AND RESULTS: Mean terminal restriction fragment...
