Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A recent study reported genetic variants in the TERT-CLPTM1L locus that were associated with mean telomere length, and with risk of multiple cancers. METHODS: We evaluated the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs401681 (C > T) and mean telomere length, using qua...
