Aging of Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome fibroblasts is characterised by hyperproliferation and increased apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Gerontology, 2004
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that mimics certain aspects of aging prematurely. Recent work has revealed that mutations in the lamin A gene are a cause of the disease.

Anesthetic considerations in children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome: A narrative review

open access: yesPaediatric Anaesthesia, 2020
BACKGROUND: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome is a rare disease in childhood that results in premature aging. The presence of multisystem derangements including skin, bone, and joint diseases and possibly a difficult airway makes the anesthetic ...

Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome

Clinical Genetics, 2004
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is an extremely rare genetic disorder that causes premature, rapid aging shortly after birth. Recently, de novo point mutations in the Lmna gene have been found in individuals with HGPS. Lmna encodes lamin A and C, the A‐type lamins, which are an important structural component of the nuclear envelope.

Telomere length in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome

Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, 2009
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a rare premature aging disorder caused by mutations in the gene LMNA, which encodes the nuclear matrix protein lamin A. Previous research has shown that the average telomere length in fibroblasts from HGPS patients is shorter than in age-matched controls. How mutations in lamin A lead to shortened telomere
