Accelerated telomere shortening in peripheral blood lymphocytes after occupational polychlorinated biphenyls exposure

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are organochlorine pollutants with a worldwide dissemination. We examined telomere length (TL) in peripheral blood cells of 207 individuals with a high body burden of PCBs due to occupational exposure in a transformer recycling company.
