Telomeres are such an important discovery and a key to our aging. The DNA molecule is packaged into In the nucleus of each cell, and is found in thread-like structures called chromosomes. Protecting each of your chromosomes at the end is a structure ca...

(Visit: http://www.uctv.tv/) Telomeres are the chromosomes end-part, that are needed to protect chromosome ends. Due to the way chromosomes are copied, these telomeres shorten with each round of cell division. This shortening is kept in check by the en...

Telomeres explained as an analogy to aglets, the tips that keep shoe laces from unravelling. Glutathione slows down telomere shortening.

Welcome to Moof University! My name is Mahfoud, and I recently graduated from UC Riverside. I've made these videos to help students with introductory biochemistry. The videos are loosely structured around what I learned from the elementary biochemistr....

(Visit: http://www.uctv.tv/) Does stress speed up the aging process at a genetic level? Our cells are constantly aging. When cell divide some telomere is lost but if it becomes too short, that cell can no longer replicate and eventual dies. Elissa Epel...
