Extract

Telomeres are a repetitive DNA sequence at the ends of chromosomes. Telomeres shorten with every cell division, and thus become increasingly short with age. Stable telomeres are necessary for cellular survival, and critically short or dysfunctional telomeres lead to cellular senescence or apoptosis. Mutations in genes encoding telomere-associated proteins can lead to increased telomere shortening or telomere dysfunction [1]. These mutations can cause various disease manifestations, which are termed telomere syndromes [1].
