Hutchinson-Gilford syndrome (progeria)
Progeria is a rare, autosomal dominant, progeroid disorder. In the world literature less than 100 cases have been reported to date. We present this case because of its rarity.

Differential expression of A-type and B-type lamins during hair cycling. [PDF]
Multiple genetic disorders caused by mutations that affect the proteins lamin A and C show strong skin phenotypes. These disorders include the premature aging disorders Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome and mandibuloacral dysplasia, as well as ...

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.

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 ...

Development of a CRISPR/Cas9-based therapy for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome [PDF]
CRISPR/Cas9-based therapies hold considerable promise for the treatment of genetic diseases. Among these, Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome, caused by a point mutation in the LMNA gene, stands out as a potential candidate.

Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome: A Literature Review. [PDF]
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a premature aging condition that involves genetic mutations, resulting in debilitating phenotypic features. The present state of knowledge on the molecular pathways that contribute to the pathophysiology of HGPS and the techniques being tested in vitro and in vivo to combat progerin toxicity have been ...

The decision‐making process and criteria in selecting candidate drugs for progeria clinical trials
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (progeria) is an extremely rare premature aging disease with a population prevalence of 1 in 20 million. Nevertheless, propelled by the discovery of a causal mutation in the lamin A/C gene (LMNA) (De Sandre‐Giovannoli

Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome causes premature aging. Here the authors show that activation of the DNA damage response at dysfunctional telomeres and transcription of telomeric non-coding RNAs contributes to the pathogenesis, which can be ...

“Three fruit (LG, SH, and WH) and one leaves (LGLV) genotypes of snake melon were chemically profiled by LC‐HRMS. LGLV was chemically distinct and was active against MRSA as evidenced by an in vivo model. Moreover, LGLV counteracted H2O2‐induced cell senescence.
