text: The role of telomere homeostasis and cell senescence in human aging has been supported by studies demonstrating a relationship between donor age and telomere lengths, correlations between in vitro growth capacity and donor age, and reduced in vitro growth capacity of cells isolated from patients suffering from various types of progeria (conditions characterized by premature aging) when compared with normal, age-matched control cells (Dimri et al. 1995, Faragher et al. 1993, Martin et al. 1970).
