Oxidative Telomere Attrition, Nutritional Antioxidants And Biological Aging.
Author: Michael J. Glade, PhD., F.A.C.N., C.N.S. Abstract Telomeres are strings of DNA that are not themselves genes but that extend every chromosome beyond its last gene. Terminal telomeres are sacrificed during every mitotic event in human cells (“telomere attrition”), preserving the functional genome despite the “end replication problem.” However, the “telomeric theory of biological […]
