Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes and Lung Cancer Risk: A Large Case–Control Study in Caucasians

12 Mar 2014

Abstract excerpt

Telomere dysfunction is a crucial event in malignant transformation and tumorigenesis. Telomere length in peripheral blood leukocytes has been associated with lung cancer risk, but the relationship has remained controversial. In this study, we investigated whether the association might be confounded by study of different histological subtypes of lung cancer. We measured relative telomere lengths in patients in a...
