Telomere length dynamics in early life: the blood‐and‐muscle model
29 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Telomere length (TL) trajectories in somatic tissues during human growth and development are poorly understood. We examined a blood‐and‐muscle model during early life, focusing on TL trajectories in leukocytes, representing the highly proliferative hematopoietic system, and skeletal muscle, a minimally pro‐liferative tissue. Leukocyte TL (LTL) and skeletal muscle TL (MTL) were measured in 28 fetuses and 73...
