Mashup Score: 6Diabetes, metabolic disease, and telomere length - 2 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…

Mashup Score: 0
August 17, 2022 — A new research paper was published in Aging (“Aging (Albany NY)” by Medline/PubMed, “Aging-US” by Web of Science) Volume 14, Issue 14, titled, “Common electrocardiogram measures are not associated with telomere length.” Aging is accompanied by telomere shortening. Increased telomere shortening is considered a marker of premature aging. Cardiac aging results in the development…

Mashup Score: 3Short telomeres in lung transplantation: Known unknowns - 2 year(s) ago
Telomeres are an array of repetitive nucleotide sequences located at the end of chromosomes that play a critical role in protecting genome integrity during cell division. A growing body of work has demonstrated, that in combination with environmental and epidemiological factors, rare mutations in the telomere maintenance pathway can lead to telomere shortening resulting in increased risk for…

Mashup Score: 10Strategies for meiotic sex chromosome dynamics and telomeric elongation in Marsupials - 2 year(s) ago
Author summary The generation of haploid gametes is a hallmark of sexual reproduction. And this is accomplished by a complex, albeit tightly regulated, reductional cell division called meiosis. Although meiosis has been extensively studied in eutherian mammal model species, our understanding of the mechanisms regulating chromosome synapsis, recombination and segregation during meiosis progression…

Background Prenatal maternal tobacco smoking is a predictor of child attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and is associated with offspring telomere length (TL). In this study, we examine the relationship between maternal prenatal smoking, infant TL, and maternal report of early childhood symptoms of ADHD. Methods One-hundred and eighty-one mother-infant dyads were followed…
