Telomere biology encompasses the structure, function, and regulation of telomeres and their associated proteins. Telomeres consist of repetitive DNA sequences and shelterin protein complexes that maintain chromosome integrity. Proper telomere function prevents genomic instability and inappropriate DNA damage responses. Telomere biology is tightly linked to aging, cancer, stem cell function, and tissue regeneration. Dysregulation of telomere maintenance accelerates aging and increases disease susceptibility. Research in telomere biology has revealed complex interactions between telomeres, DNA repair pathways, and cellular metabolism. Understanding telomere biology provides insights into fundamental aging mechanisms and potential therapeutic strategies.
