A systematic review of leukocyte telomere length and age in adults.

TLDR
While a decrease of LTL with age is out of question, data on variation of the decrease according to sex, age and other potential determinants especially from longitudinal data are still sparse.

In vivo biomarkers of structural and functional brain development and aging in humans.

TL;DR: This work reviews current advances of in vivo biomarkers predicting individual brain age and concludes thatotype-related biomarkers of global cognitive function and brain structure provide a much closer correlation to age at the individual level.

Metal‐Ion‐Activated DNAzymes Used for Regulation of Telomerase Activity in Living Cells

TL;DR: This work provides a new way to modulate telomerase activity in living cells by using DNAzymes that can regulate cell behavior, including cell migration, cell differentiation, cell senescence, and cell cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic capacity and telomere length in human skeletal muscle and leukocytes across the lifespan

TL;DR: In healthy individuals, age explain most of the variability of LTL and this appears to be independent of individual aerobic capacity, but individuals with longer LTL also have a longer MTL, suggesting that there might be a shared molecular mechanism regulating telomere length.
Journal ArticleDOI

Psychological Profiles in the Prediction of Leukocyte Telomere Length in Healthy Individuals.

TL;DR: Telomere length is associated with psychological burden though the direction of effect differs depending on the psychological variables under study, and age moderated the relation between TL and defensiveness.

Analysis of relative gene expression data using real-time quantitative pcr and the 2(-delta delta c(t)) method

TL;DR: The 2-Delta Delta C(T) method as mentioned in this paper was proposed to analyze the relative changes in gene expression from real-time quantitative PCR experiments, and it has been shown to be useful in the analysis of realtime, quantitative PCR data.

Meta-analysis of observational studies in epidemiology - A proposal for reporting

TL;DR: A checklist contains specifications for reporting of meta-analyses of observational studies in epidemiology, including background, search strategy, methods, results, discussion, and conclusion should improve the usefulness ofMeta-an analyses for authors, reviewers, editors, readers, and decision makers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relative expression software tool (REST©) for group-wise comparison and statistical analysis of relative expression results in real-time PCR

TL;DR: Development and application of REST is explained, the usefulness of relative expression in real-time PCR using REST is discussed and the mathematical model used is based on the PCR efficiencies and the mean crossing point deviation between the sample and control group.

Telomeres shorten during ageing of human fibroblasts.

TL;DR: The amount and length of telomeric DNA in human fibroblasts does in fact decrease as a function of serial passage during ageing in vitro and possibly in vivo.
