telomerase activity and telomere length in aml-m3 patients
introduction: the telomeric dna together with its associated proteins protects the chromosome ends from degradation or aberrant recombination. telomerase and telomere are closely associated with development of cancers. in this study we aim to investigate the significance of telomerase activity (ta) and telomere length (tl) in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (apl). methods: peripher...
متن کاملInsomnia and Telomere Length in Older Adults.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Insomnia, particularly in later life, may raise the risk for chronic diseases of aging and mortality through its effect on cellular aging. The current study examines the effects of insomnia on telomere length, a measure of cellular aging, and tests whether insomnia interacts with chronological age to increase cellular aging. METHODS A total of 126 males and females (60-88 y) ...
متن کاملTelomerase Activity and Telomere Length in Daphnia
Telomeres, comprised of short repetitive sequences, are essential for genome stability and have been studied in relation to cellular senescence and aging. Telomerase, the enzyme that adds telomeric repeats to chromosome ends, is essential for maintaining the overall telomere length. A lack of telomerase activity in mammalian somatic cells results in progressive shortening of telomeres with each...
متن کاملPhysical Activity, Physical Fitness, and Leukocyte Telomere Length: The Cardiovascular Health Study.
INTRODUCTION The influence of physical activity (PA) and physical fitness (PF) at older ages on changes in telomere length (TL)--repetitive DNA sequences that may mark biologic aging--is not well-established. Few prior studies (mainly cross-sectional) have been conducted in older adults, and few studies have evaluated PF. METHODS We investigated cross-sectional and prospective associations of...
متن کاملPsychosocial Stress and Telomere Length in Older Adults
Background → Psychosocial stress has been associated with an increased risk for mental and somatic health problems across the life span. Some studies in younger adults linked this to accelerated cellular aging, indexed by shortened telomere length (TL). In older adults, the impact of psychosocial stress on TL may be different due to the lifetime exposure to competing causes of TL-shortening. Th...
