Telomere shortening limits the proliferative capacity of primary human cells and restrains the regenerative capacity of organ systems during chronic diseases and aging. Telomere shortening apparently has a dual role in tumor development and progression. On the one hand, it induces chromosomal instab
## Abstract A study was undertaken to correlate telomere dysfunction and genomic instability with the histopathological grades and the estrogen and progesterone receptor status in breast cancer. Sixtyβone archived breast tissues (38 cancer tissues and 23 paired normal tissues) were used in the stud
