Abstract
⺠Telomere crisis implicated as a common crucial event in malignant transformation. ⺠Telomere length has emerged as a putative biomarker of cancer disease risk. ⺠Estimates from prospective studies are much weaker than from retrospective studies. ⺠Differences may be due to biases intrinsic to retrospective study design. ⺠Study design considerations are given for future investigations.
