Telomere shortening and ionizing radiation: A possible role in vascular dysfunction? Laura Sabatino, Eugenio Picano & Maria Grazia Andreassi  Full Article Keywords:: DNA damage, ionizing radiation, oxidative stress, telomere, vascular disease Abstract Purpose: In recent years, growing epidemiological evidence has linked ionizing radiation exposure to cardiovascular atherosclerotic disease. However, there are still major gaps in the knowledge of the molecular mechanisms of radiation-inducedContinue reading “Telomere shortening and ionizing radiation: A possible role in vascular dysfunction?”
