DNA methylation‐based telomere length is associated with HIV infection, physical frailty, cancer, and all‐cause mortality
17 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
Telomere length (TL) is an important indicator of cellular aging. Shorter TL is associated with several age-related diseases including coronary heart disease, heart failure, diabetes, osteoporosis, and cancer. Recently, a DNA methylation-based TL (DNAmTL) estimator has been developed as an alternative method for directly measuring TL. In this study, we examined the association of DNAmTL with cancer prevalence and...
