Abstract
Leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is a key biomarker associated with cellular aging.
- Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by both immune-mediated damage and accelerated biological aging.
- LTL may serve as a biomarker for assessing cellular senescence in individuals with MS.
- The role of shelterin complex genetics in modulating LTL in early-stage MS is not yet fully understood.
