Why are telomeres and telomerase important? Telomeres progressively shorten with increasing age as a consequence of cumulative cycles of cell division that are required for tissue repair and regeneration. When telomeres become too short, cells stop duplicating, and so we age. Through sufficient induction of telomerase (the naturally occurring enzyme that maintains telomeres and prevents them from shortening during cell division) a cure for the ‘disease’ of programmed aging could be achieved.
