A Prospective Study of Telomere Length Measured by Monochrome Multiplex Quantitative PCR and Risk of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
24 Nov 2009
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Telomere length plays an important role in the maintenance of chromosomal stability and in tumorigenesis. We hypothesized that telomere length in peripheral WBC DNA obtained from healthy individuals would be a predictor of future risk of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Using a new assay to measure relative telomere length, monochrome multiplex quantitative PCR, which strongly...
