Extending telomeres can allow cells to divide more and increase the risk of uncontrolled cell growth and cancer development. [24] A study conducted by Johns Hopkins University challenged the idea that long telomeres prevent aging.

The typical normal human fetal cell will divide between 50 and 70 times before experiencing senescence. As the cell divides, the telomeres on the ends of chromosomes shorten. The Hayflick limit is the limit on cell replication imposed by the shortening of telomeres with each division. This end stage is known as cellular senescence.

The sperm cells are produced in testes 6.7 cm long, which comprise 11% of the male ...
