Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes Is Associated with Risk of Colorectal Cancer in Chinese Population

3 Feb 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Human telomeres, tandem repeats of TTAGGG nucleotides at the ends of chromosomes, are essential for maintaining genomic integrity and stability. Results of previous epidemiologic studies about the association of telomere length with risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) have been conflicting. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted in a Han population in Wuhan, central China. The relative telomere...
