Abstract:The different type of the age-related dynamics of telomeric DNA in different species indicates the complex mechanisms for regulating telomere length. In fish, telomere length can decrease, be maintained or increase during ontogeny. The cause of this is still unclear, but we assume that the regulation of telomeric DNA length may depend on the activity of protective systems and distribution of energy resources between tissues. We studied age-related dynamics of telomeric DNA in muscles and fins of peled, Coregon… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
