The Individual Blood Cell Telomere Attrition Rate Is Telomere Length Dependent

13 Feb 2009

Abstract excerpt

Age-associated telomere shortening is a well documented feature of peripheral blood cells in human population studies, but it is not known to what extent these data can be transferred to the individual level. Telomere length (TL) in two blood samples taken at approximately 10 years interval from 959 individuals was investigated using real-time PCR. TL was also measured in 13 families from a multigenerational...
