1. Different strategies of reproductive mode, either oviparity (egg-laying) or viviparity (live-bearing), will be associated with a range of other life history differences that are expected to affect
The factors that underlie the increasing incidence of diabetes with age are poorly understood. We examined whether telomere length, known to decrease with age, plays a role in the age-dependent increa
The DNA damage response (DDR) coordinates DNA repair and transiently arrests cell-cycle progression until DNA damage has been removed1. We observed cellular senescence establishment and persistent DDR
The prediction that telomere length (TL) shortens with increasing age is a major element in considering the role of telomeres as a key player in evolution. While telomere attrition is found in humans
