Multiple factors influence telomere length and DNA damage in individuals residing in proximity to a coal-burning power plant
2023-06-15
Abstract excerpt
Coal is a mixture of several chemicals, many of which have mutagenic and carcinogenic effects and are a key contributor to the global burden of mortality and disease. Previous studies suggest that coal is related to telomeric shortening in individuals occupationally exposed, however little is known about the effects of mining and burning coal on the telomeres of individuals living nearby. Therefore, the primary ob...
