Abstract excerpt

Telomeres constitute the protective ends of chromosomes. They become shorter after each cell division, and therefore, telomere length is considered as an indicator of cellular aging. Interestingly, both inflammation and oxidative stress, which play a role in the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD), may accelerate telomere shortening. Furthermore, it has been suggested that leukocyte telomere shortening may be...
