TERT and hypertensive disorder: Another study conducted on hypertension patients who participated in Transcendental Meditation for 16 weeks showed a non-significant increase in the TERT gene expression after the intervention program (41), however, in our study, we did not observe this change for the TERT gene at week 12 in YBLI but it gives the impression that 12 or more weeks of yoga intervention might change the TERT expression.
