This highly significant age-related decline in telomere length was associated with increasing foci levels in both CD34+ (8–9 kb: 0.181±0.016 foci/cell; ≤8 kb: 0.250±0.035 foci/cell; p = 0.049) and CD34− cells (8–9 kb: 0.125±0.018 foci/cell; ≤8 kb: 0.243±0.032 foci/cell; p = 0.002, compare Fig. 3A insets).
