  1. post-transplant events were not clearly linked with intrarenal telomere length in humans.

    “delayed graft function, acute rejection episodes, presence of donor-specific antibodies, cytomegalovirus disease and immunosuppressive regimen did not associate with alterations of intrarenal telomere length at 5 years”

  1. Intrarenal telomere length is associated with arteriosclerosis in humans (independent of donor age and donor cardiovascular risk).

  2. Arteriosclerosis is associated with intrarenal telomere length in humans (test cohort, adjusted for history of cardiovascular events and calendar age) (T/S ratio 0.91±0.15 vs. 1.20±0.23 with vs. without arteriosclerosis, p=0.007).
