OR18-2 Higher Plasma Estradiol Concentration Is Independently Associated with Lower Biological Age, Assessed as Leucocyte Telomere Length, in Older Men
Telomeres are essential DNA-protein complexes comprising TTAGGG repeats binding specific proteins, which protect the physical ends of chromosomes from fusion and degradation. Attrition of telomeres results in cellular senescence. Leucocyte telomere length (LTL) reflects lengths of telomeres in vario...
