Telomere shortening is a well-known hallmark of both cellular senescence and organismal
aging. An accelerated rate of telomere attrition is also a common feature of age-related …

Telomeres are highly conserved tandem nucleotide repeats that include proximal double-
stranded and distal single-stranded regions that in complex with shelterin proteins afford …

INTRODUCTION Telomeres are DNA-protein complexes located at the end of chromosomes
that protect chromosome ends from degradation and fusion. The DNA component of …

Several traditional observational studies suggested an association between COVID‐19 and
leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a biomarker for biological age. However, whether there …

Objective To investigate the incidence of gastric cancer (GC) attributed to gastric intestinal
metaplasia (IM), and validate the Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia (OLGIM) for …

Ageing is a multifactorial process associated with reduced function and increased risk of
morbidity and mortality. Recently, nine cellular and molecular hallmarks of ageing have …

Alcohol's impact on telomere length, a proposed marker of biological aging, is unclear. We
performed the largest observational study to date (in n= 245,354 UK Biobank participants) …

Simple Summary A link between telomere length and some age-related diseases has been
identified, including metabolic syndrome. So far, there is no mechanism to explain the origin …
