Stress, telomeres, and psychopathology: toward a deeper understanding of a triad of early aging
ES Epel, AA Prather - Annual review of clinical psychology, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Telomeres play an important part in aging and show relationships to lifetime adversity,
particularly childhood adversity. Meta-analyses demonstrate reliable associations between …

Eleven telomere, epigenetic clock, and biomarker-composite quantifications of biological aging: do they measure the same thing?
The geroscience hypothesis posits that therapies to slow biological processes of aging can
prevent disease and extend healthy years of life. To test such “geroprotective” therapies in …

Why are there associations between telomere length and behaviour?
Individual differences in telomere length are associated with individual differences in
behaviour in humans and birds. Within the human epidemiological literature this association …
