Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recent large-scale prospective studies suggest that long telomeres are associated with an increase cancer risk, counter to conventional wisdom. METHODS: To further clarify the association between leukocyte telomere length (LTL) and prostate cancer, and assess genetic variability in relation to both LTL and prostate cancer, we performed a nested case-control study (922 cases and 935 controls). The...
