Progerin, an Aberrant Spliced Form of Lamin A, Is a Potential Therapeutic Target for HGPS
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is an extremely rare genetic disorder caused by the mutant protein progerin, which is expressed by the abnormal splicing of the LMNA gene.

Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms Driving Cardiovascular Disease in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome: Lessons Learned from Animal Models [PDF]
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disease that recapitulates many symptoms of physiological aging and precipitates death. Patients develop severe vascular alterations, mainly massive vascular smooth muscle cell loss, vessel ...

Extracellular matrix abnormalities in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria fibroblasts: a specific defect in collagen IV and basement membrane architecture? [PDF]
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria (HGPS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by clinical features that mimic accelerated aging. The classical form of progeria is caused by a heterozygous pathogenic variant in in the LMNA gene resulting in the truncated ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis reveals the critical role of fibroblasts in aortic progeria-associated vascular remodeling in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome mice [PDF]
BackgroundPatients with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) typically succumb to cardiovascular diseases in their teens. Although fibroblasts have been implicated in the progression of arteriosclerosis, their roles and mechanisms in progeroid ...

Hemoglobinopathies and iron deficiency among Northeast-Thai blood donors deferred for low hemoglobin [PDF]
While iron deficiency (ID) is well-known as the main reason for low hemoglobin (Hb) deferral among blood donors, the contribution of hemoglobinopathies (HgPs) has been overlooked.

Vulnerability of progeroid smooth muscle cells to biomechanical forces is mediated by MMP13
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a premature aging disease and smooth muscle cells are the most affected cells in HGPS individuals. Here, the authors report a microfluidics platform with HGPS induced pluripotent stem cells and show that ...
