Telomeres and Epigenetics: Relationship between DNA Methylation and Telomere Length

Telomeres are the protective caps located at the end of chromosomes, which shorten with each round of cell division. These structures play an important role in maintaining genome stability, and their length is associated with cellular aging, cancer, and other diseases. Recently, it has been discovered that telomere length is regulated by a complex interplay between genetic and epigenetic factors. It will explore the connection between telomeres and epigenetics, with a focus on the interplay between DNA methylation and telomere length [
