Transl Psychiatry
. 2016 Aug;
6(8):e880.
PMID: 27576169
Meditation is becoming increasingly practiced, especially for stress-related medical conditions. Meditation may improve cellular health; however, studies have not separated out effects of meditation from vacation-like effects in a residential...

PMID: 27302671
Leukocyte telomere length (LTL) has been inversely associated with sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption in cross-sectional studies, but no studies have examined whether dietary intake influences LTL over time. This study...

Transl Psychiatry
. 2015 Nov;

PMID: 26556285
Several studies have reported that adults with major depressive disorder have shorter telomere length and reduced hippocampal volumes. Moreover, studies of adult populations without major depressive disorder suggest a relationship...

Mol Psychiatry
. 2014 Sep;
20(4):520-8.
PMID: 25178165
Telomere length has been hypothesized to be a marker of cumulative exposure to stress, and stress is an established cause of depression and anxiety disorders. The aim of this study...

. 2014 Jul;
20(4):529-35.
PMID: 25070535
Telomere length, a reliable predictor of disease pathogenesis, can be affected by genetics, chronic stress and health behaviors. Cross-sectionally, highly stressed postmenopausal women have shorter telomeres, but only if they...

Njajou O, Cawthon R, Blackburn E, Harris T, Li R, Sanders J, et al.
Int J Obes (Lond)
. 2011 Oct;
36(9):1176-9.
PMID: 22005719
Objective: Obesity and shorter telomeres are commonly associated with elevated risk for age-related diseases and mortality. Whether telomere length (TL) may be associated with obesity or variations in adiposity is...

Mol Psychiatry
. 2011 Jan;
17(2):164-72.
PMID: 21242992
Telomeres are DNA-protein complexes that cap linear DNA strands, protecting DNA from damage. When telomeres critically shorten, cells become susceptible to senescence and apoptosis. Telomerase, a cellular ribonucleoprotein enzyme, rebuilds...

PMID: 19111922
The combination of less positive and more negative expectations for the future (i.e., lower optimism and higher pessimism) increases risk for disease and early mortality. We tested the possibility that...

Li S, Blackburn E
Cold Spring Harb Symp Quant Biol
. 2007 Mar;
71:211-5.
PMID: 17381299
Telomeres are maintained by the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) enzyme telomerase, which replenishes telomeres through its unique mechanism of internal RNA-templated addition of telomeric DNA. Telomerase is active in most human cancers,...

Cold Spring Harb Symp Quant Biol
. 2003 May;
65:253-63.
PMID: 12760039
Multiple interacting components of the telomere, together with telomerase (and sometimes recombination), determine whether a telomere will be functional, allowing cell proliferation. The various components reinforce each other, providing for...
