Telomere Length Varies By DNA Extraction Method: Implications for Epidemiologic Research

9 Sept 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Both shorter and longer telomeres in peripheral blood leukocyte (PBL) DNA have been associated with cancer risk. However, associations remain inconsistent across studies of the same cancer type. This study compares DNA preparation methods to determine telomere length from patients with colorectal cancer. METHODS: We examined PBL relative telomere length (RTL) measured by quantitative PCR (qPCR) in...
