  1. mTAC mediates telomere length in humans (completely standardized β = -0.17, bootstrap CI95 %: -0.44 to -0.01).

    “mediational analysis suggested that the effect of the cortisol stress response on TL was mediated by mTAC (completely standardized β = -0.17, bootstrap CI95 %: -0.44 to -0.01).”

    Maximal telomerase activity capacity (mTAC) underlies the link between the cortisol response to stress and telomere length

  1. mTAC is associated with telomere length in humans (r = 0.50, p = .01).

    “higher mTAC levels were associated with longer TL (r = 0.50, p = .01).”
