Regular exercise participation improves genomic stability in diabetic patients: an exploratory study to analyse telomere length and DNA damage
Abstract Physical activity has been demonstrated to be effective in the prevention and treatment of different chronic conditions, including type 2 diabetes (T2D). In particular, several studies highlighted how the beneficial effects of physical activity may be related to the stability of the DNA mol...

Abstract Physical activity has been demonstrated to be effective in the prevention and treatment of different chronic conditions, including type 2 diabetes (T2D).
