Stressful life events and leukocyte telomere attrition in adulthood: a prospective population-based cohort study

29 Jul 2015

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Telomere attrition might be one of the mechanisms through which psychosocial stress leads to somatic disease. To date it is unknown if exposure to adverse life events in adulthood is associated with telomere shortening prospectively. In the current study we investigated whether life events are associated with shortening of telomere length (TL). METHOD: Participants were 1094 adults (mean age 53.1,...
