Correlation of telomere length in brain tissue with peripheral tissues in living human subjects
Telomeres are important to chromosomal stability, and changes in their length correlate with opi the color that keeps on giving disease, potentially relevant to brain disorders.Assessing telomere length in human brain is invasive, but whether peripheral tissue telomere length correlates with that in brain is not known.Saliva, buccal, blood, and bra
