Abstract
The invention relates to a high throughput method for determining telomere length of mammalian chromosomal DNA; primers for use in said method; a kit comprising said primers; use of said method to diagnose or prognose or to determine the risk of developing a telomere shortening disease such as cancer, ageing, neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and other dementias, brain infarction, heart disease, chronic HIV infection, chronic hepatitis, skin diseases, chronic inflammatory bowel disease including ulcerative colitis, anaemia, atherosclerosis, Barrett's oesophagus and cancers including pre-cancerous conditions, infertility, telomere syndromes including dyskeratosis congenita, aplastic anaemia, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, familial myelodysplastic syndrome-acute myeloid leukaemia, Hoyeraal-Hreiderasson syndrome, Revesz syndrome, Coats plus syndrome, bone marrow failure, and cryptogenic liver cirrhosis. Additionally, the invention also has application in assessing an individual's suitability to be a transplantation donor, for example a bone marrow donor.
