Aging as a consequence of misrepair -- A novel theory of aging [PDF]
It is now increasingly realized that the underlying mechanisms which govern aging is a complex interplay of genetic regulation and damage accumulation. Aging as a result of accumulation of ‘faults’ on cellular and molecular levels, has been

Increased Brain Age Gap Estimate (BrainAGE) in Young Adults After Premature Birth
Recent evidence suggests increased metabolic and physiologic aging rates in premature-born adults. While the lasting consequences of premature birth on human brain development are known, its impact on brain aging remains unclear.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia in a 23 year old man with progeroid syndrome
Introduction: Progeroid syndromes are characterized by accelerated aging and early development of diseases typically associated with aging. Premature development of tumors including BPH, maybe observed in these patients, which can lead to significant ...

Genomic instability and DNA replication defects in progeroid syndromes [PDF]
Progeroid syndromes induced by mutations in lamin A or in its interactors – named progeroid laminopathies – are model systems for the dissection of the molecular pathways causing physio- logical and premature aging.

Inflammation and premature aging in advanced chronic kidney disease [PDF]
Systemic inflammation in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is an established risk factor for mortality and a catalyst for other complications which are related to a premature aging phenotype, including muscle wasting, vascular calcification and other forms ...

Altered modulation of lamin A/C-HDAC2 interaction and p21 expression during oxidative stress response in HGPS [PDF]
Defects in stress response are main determinants of cellular senescence and organism aging. In fibroblasts from patients affected by Hutchinson-Gilford progeria, a severe LMNA-linked syndrome associated with bone resorption, cardiovascular disorders, and

PREMATURE AGING MARKERS IN WOMEN OF REPRODUCTIVE AGE WITH HYPOPITUITARISM
Background: Premature aging reduces quality of human life, leads to development of “old age diseases” in younger age, and also shortens life expectancy.

Differential stem cell aging kinetics in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome and Werner syndrome
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) and Werner syndrome (WS) are two of the best characterized human progeroid syndromes. HGPS is caused by a point mutation in lamin A (LMNA) gene, resulting in the production of a truncated protein product ...

Doubled lifespan and patient‐like pathologies in progeria mice fed high‐fat diet [PDF]
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a devastating premature aging disease. Mouse models have been instrumental for understanding HGPS mechanisms and for testing therapies, which to date have had only marginal benefits in mice and patients ...
