Last But Not Least: A Book On Telomere Biology

Focusing on the biology of telomeres, this book explores their critical role in cellular function and aging. It highlights how telomeres, the protective ends of chromosomes, prevent degradation and recombination, thereby maintaining genetic integrity. The text delves into the implications of telomere length defects, linking them to various age-related diseases, premature aging syndromes, and cancer. Through this examination, it underscores the significance of telomeres in health and longevity.
