The role of the Telomere lenght in the relationship between Mercury exposure and cardiometabolic risk factors

Puntos clave

• Telomere length is associated with cardiometabolic risk factors in the context of mercury exposure, revealing critical insights.
• Findings indicate that shorter telomeres correlate with increased cardiometabolic risks, emphasizing the importance of telomere health.
• Observational analysis highlights the role of oxidative stress and inflammation in mediating the effects of mercury on telomeres.
• Understanding this relationship may inform potential interventions to reduce health risks associated with mercury exposure.
