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 …

The global population of individuals over the age of 65 is growing at an unprecedented rate
and is expected to reach 1.6 billion by 2050. Most older individuals are affected by multiple …

Purpose. Leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is an important biomarker of aging. The oxidative
balance score (OBS) is used to assess the oxidative stress‐related exposures of diet and …

Background Cigarette smoking is a risk factor for ageing-related disease, but its association
with biological ageing, indicated by telomere length, is unclear. Methods We systematically …

Lines of evidence from several studies have shown that increases in life expectancy are now
accompanied by increased disability rate. The expanded lifespan of the aging population …

Although advances in preventive medicine have greatly improved prognosis, cardiovascular
disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death worldwide. This clearly indicates that …

Background Even before the onset of age-related diseases, obesity might be a contributing
factor to the cumulative burden of oxidative stress and chronic inflammation throughout the …

The principal objective was to determine the extent to which physical activity (PA) accounts
for differences in leukocyte telomere length (LTL) in a large random sample of US adults …

Vascular disease was for a long time considered a disease of the old age, but it is becoming
increasingly clear that a cumulus of factors can cause early vascular aging (EVA) …

Identifying simple strategies to prevent or delay age-associated pathologies is a major
public health concern. Attrition of telomeres, chromatin structures that help maintain genome …
