Telomere length analysis from minimally‐invasively collected samples
Shortened telomere length is associated with unfair treatment attributed to race in African Americans living in Tallahassee, Florida
OBJECTIVES: Experiences of interpersonal discrimination are pervasive stressors in the lives of African Americans. Increased discrimination stress may cause premature aging. Telomere length (TL) is a plastic genetic trait that is an emerging indicator of cellular health and aging. Short TL is a risk factor for the earlier onset of disease. TL shortens with age, a process that may be accelerated by psychosocial stress. Our study explores the relat…
Testing for paternal influences on offspring telomere length in a human cohort in the Philippines
OBJECTIVES: Telomeres, emerging biomarkers of aging, are comprised of DNA repeats located at chromosomal ends that shorten with cellular replication and age in most human tissues. In contrast, spermatocyte telomeres lengthen with age. These changes in telomere length (TL) appear to be heritable, as older paternal ages of conception (PAC) predict longer offspring TL. Mouse-model studies raise questions about the potential for effects of paternal e…
Telomere Depletion
Understanding influences of culture and history on mtDNA variation and population structure in three populations from A ssam, Northeast I ndia
Assam has undergone multiple colonization events in the time since the initial peopling event, with populations from Southern China and Southeast Asia having the greatest influence on maternal lineages in the region
