DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2017.06.899
Abstract: In humans, leukocyte telomere length (LTL) reduces with age and is reported to be inversely associated with ageing-related diseases. We measured LTL in leukocyte DNA using a quantitative PCR-based method from 127 blood samples of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.psyneuen.2020.105124
Abstract: BACKGROUND Optimism is linked with greater longevity in both White and African American populations. Optimism may enhance longevity by slowing cellular aging, for which leukocyte telomere shortening is a biomarker. However, limited studies have examined… read more here.
