dc.subject | Both individuals with significantly shortened and significantly elongated telomeres are at increased risk of several cancers. Moreover, it was previously shown that telomere length (TL) is a heritable trait. Implementation of TL measurement as a routine diagnostic procedure thus holds clinical benefit for both cancer patients and their relatives. In this thesis, several TL measurement assays are discussed and compared, to allow selection of a preferred technique for routine implementation. | |
