to je starenje?
Starenje je proces sveobuhvatnog, ireverzibilnog i progresivnog tjelesnog propadanja koje se dogaa tijekom vremena.

Predikcija dugovjenosti?

Association of telomere length in blood DNA after age 60 with subsequent survival. Data are plotted as fitted and smoothed survival curves, according to the group prognosis method. Longer identifies individuals from the top half of the telomere length distribution and shorter those from the bottom half of the distribution. Years since draw means the interval ending with that year (eg, 71 people at risk at end of year 1 for longer group, both sexes).

The relationship between telomere length and survival in humans (after Bakaysa et al. 2007). Those with the longest telomere lengths have the highest survival prospects.

Dulje telomere bolje zdravlje

Telomere length (adjusted for age, gender, and group) according to the absence (gray bars) or presence (white bars) of various age-related diseases in the study subjects. Number of individuals analyzed in each group: hypertension (n = 125), without hypertension (n = 142), with the metabolic syndrome (n = 59), without the metabolic syndrome (n = 286), diabetes (n = 34), without diabetes (n = 276). The MMSE (Mini-Mental State Examination) was performed in centenarians only: MMSE score 25 (gray bars, n = 46) or >25 (white bars, n = 32). *P < 0.05.

!
Telomere length and telomerase activity levels in extreme high- and low-stress groups. (A) Average telomere length and SE are shown. The highstress group had shorter telomeres even after controlling for age. (B) Average telomerase activity and SE are shown. The high-stress group had lower telomerase activity even after controlling for age.
