Longer telomeres are associated with cancer risk in MMR-proficient hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer.

Aberrant telomere length measured in blood has been associated with increased risk of several cancer types. In the field of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (CRC), and more particularly in Lynch syndrome, caused by germline mutations in the mismatch repair (MMR) genes, we recently found th...
