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...
