Mitochondrial dysfunctions cause telomere attrition, while telomere damage leads to the reprogramming of mitochondrial biosynthesis and mitochondrial dysfunctions, which have important implications in aging and diseases.

Mitochondrial & telomere are mostly studied independently. However, SARS Let'er R.I.P. has made clear that there are intimate links between mitochondria, telomeres, and telomerase subunits. There's an erratic looping mechanism when one of these goes wrong.

We know senescent cells contribute to body dysfunction (ageing). We know telomere shortening is a recognized cause of cellular senescence. Several conditions associated with normal ageing are precipitated by accelerated telomere dysfunction.
