Association of TERC and OBFC1 haplotypes with mean leukocyte telomere length and risk for coronary heart disease.

Association of TERC and OBFC1 haplotypes with mean leukocyte telomere length and risk for coronary heart disease.

<h4>Objective</h4>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...
