Mashup Score: 3Telomere DNA length regulation is influenced by seasonal temperature differences in short-lived but not in long-lived reef-building corals - Nature Communications - 11 month(s) ago
Using data from the Tara Pacific expedition, this study shows that a key driver of variation in coral telomere DNA length across the Pacific Ocean is the history of water temperature. The telomere lengths of short-lived, stress-sensitive Pocillopora colonies are more sensitive to seasonal temperature variations than those of long-lived and stress-resistant Porites colonies.

Mashup Score: 15Diabetes, metabolic disease, and telomere length - 1 year(s) ago
Telomeres are regions of repetitive nucleotide sequences at the ends of chromosomes. Telomere length is a marker of DNA damage, which is often considered a biomarker for biological ageing, and has also been linked with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. Emerging studies have highlighted the role of genetic and environmental factors, and explored the effect of modulating telomere…

Background Leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is suggested to be a biomarker of biological age and reported to be associated with metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. Glucose metabolic traits including glucose and insulin levels have been reported to be associated with LTL in adulthood. However, there is relatively little research focusing on children’s LTL and the association with prenatal…

Mashup Score: 3Genetically predicted telomere length and Alzheimer’s disease endophenotypes: a Mendelian randomization study - Alzheimer's Research & Therapy - 1 year(s) ago
Telomere length (TL) is associated with biological aging, consequently influencing the risk of age-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We aimed to evaluate the potential causal role of TL in AD endophenotypes (i.e., cognitive performance, N = 2233; brain age and AD-related signatures, N = 1134; and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers (CSF) of AD and neurodegeneration, N = 304) through a…
