Telomere Dynamics

Meaning

Telomere Dynamics refers to the continuous, regulated processes of shortening and maintenance of telomeres, the protective cap structures at the ends of linear chromosomes. Telomere length is a widely recognized biomarker of cellular aging, as critical shortening leads to cellular senescence and halts cell division. Understanding and modulating these dynamics is a central focus of longevity science and cellular health protocols.
