Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: To date, no prospective epidemiological data are available, particularly in women, on mean leukocyte telomere length as a risk predictor. METHODS: Using leukocyte DNA samples collected at baseline in a prospective cohort of over 28,000 initially healthy women, we examined the relationship between mean leukocyte telomere repeat copy number to single gene copy number (TSR) in 134 incident cases of...
