iPSC-Derived Endothelial Cells Affect Vascular Function in a Tissue-Engineered Blood Vessel Model of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare disorder caused by a point mutation in the Lamin A gene that produces the protein progerin. Progerin toxicity leads to accelerated aging and death from cardiovascular disease.

miR-376a-3p and miR-376b-3p overexpression in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria fibroblasts inhibits cell proliferation and induces premature senescence

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disorder, in which an abnormal and toxic protein called progerin, accumulates in cell nuclei, leading to major cellular defects.

Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell-Specific Progerin Expression Provokes Contractile Impairment in a Mouse Model of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome that Is Ameliorated by Nitrite Treatment

open access: yesCells, 2020
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of death worldwide, and aging is its leading risk factor. Aging is much accelerated in Hutchinson−Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), an ultra-rare genetic disorder provoked by the ubiquitous expression ...

Impact of Progerin Expression on Adipogenesis in Hutchinson—Gilford Progeria Skin-Derived Precursor Cells

open access: yesCells, 2021
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a segmental premature aging disease caused by a mutation in LMNA. The mutation generates a truncated and farnesylated form of prelamin A, called progerin.

A small-molecule ICMT inhibitor delays senescence of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome cells

open access: yeseLife, 2021
A farnesylated and methylated form of prelamin A called progerin causes Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). Inhibiting progerin methylation by inactivating the isoprenylcysteine carboxylmethyltransferase (ICMT) gene stimulates proliferation of ...

Effect of Magnesium on Replication of Rhinovirus HGP [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1967
It is known that plaque formation by some rhinoviruses is greatly enhanced by increasing the concentration of MgCl 2 . The mechanism of this action was studied by investigating the effects of MgCl 2 on rhinovirus HGP adsorption, growth, clumping, thermal stability, and cell susceptibility to ...

Impact of MnTBAP and Baricitinib Treatment on Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Fibroblasts

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare premature aging disease. It is caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene, which results in a 50-amino-acid truncation of prelamin A.

Altered behavior with an organic cause: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2019
Background Insulinomas are pancreatic endocrine tumors of rare incidence worldwide, the vast majority are of single occurrence and benign. These may not always present with the clear symptoms described in the literature and may be overlooked because ...

Mesenchymal stem cells derived from patients with premature aging syndromes display hallmarks of physiological aging

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2022
Using of genome-wide approaches on models from laminopathies with or without progerin accumulation (HGPS, HGPS-L, APS), this study provides new insights on pathways altered during early stages of mesenchymal stem cells differentiation.
