Scope and Contents
Contents
To replicate the associations of leukocyte telomere length (LTL) with variants at four loci and to investigate their associations with coronary heart disease (CHD) and type II diabetes (T2D), in order to examine possible causal effects of telomere maintenance machinery on disease aetiology.
Four SNPs at three loci BICD1 (rs2630578 GγC), 18q12.2...
