Comparisons of telomere lengths in peripheral blood and cerebellum in Alzheimer’s disease

BACKGROUND: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients have been reported to have shorter telomeres in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) than age-matched control subjects. However, it is unclear if PBL telomere length reflects brain telomere length, which might play a more direct role in AD pathogenesis. We...
