Clinical and genetic characteristics of hereditary laminopathies

open access: yesАнналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2017
Naminopathies belong to a wide allelic series of diseases caused by mutations of one gene, LMNA, encoding for protein lamin A/C. Different mutations in the LMNA gene cause autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive EmeryDreifuss muscular dystrophy ...

Diversity of Nuclear Lamin A/C Action as a Key to Tissue-Specific Regulation of Cellular Identity in Health and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
A-type lamins are the main structural components of the nucleus, which are mainly localized at the nucleus periphery. First of all, A-type lamins, together with B-type lamins and proteins of the inner nuclear membrane, form a stiff structure—the nuclear ...

Structure and stability of the lamin A tail domain and HGPS mutant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a premature aging syndrome caused by the expression and accumulation of a mutant form of lamin A, Δ50 lamin A.

Dynamic expression of lamin B1 during adult neurogenesis in the vertebrate brain

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 2, Page 187-208, February 2026.
Abstract Background In mammals, specific brain regions such as the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricles harbor adult neural stem/progenitor cells (ANSPCs) that give rise to new neurons and contribute to structural and functional brain plasticity.

A Perspective on the Experimental Techniques for Studying Lamins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
3Lamins are type V intermediate filaments that collectively form a meshwork underneath the inner nuclear membrane, called nuclear lamina. Furthermore, they are also present in the nucleoplasm.

The fat‐heart entanglement and the role of ‘osteopontin mechanics’ in cardiometabolic senescence

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 56, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Background Residual cardiovascular (CV) risk persists despite therapeutic advances. Obesity is heterogeneous, and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) dysfunction (‘adiposopathy’) complicates risk stratification. Osteopontin (OPN) is a pleiotropic mediator implicated in VAT inflammation, senescence‐associated pathways, atherosclerosis and myocardial ...

The empowerment of translational research: lessons from laminopathies

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2012
The need for a collaborative approach to complex inherited diseases collectively referred to as laminopathies, encouraged Italian researchers, geneticists, physicians and patients to join in the Italian Network for Laminopathies, in 2009.

The role of LMNA in adipose: a novel mouse model of lipodystrophy based on the Dunnigan-type familial partial lipodystrophy mutation[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
We investigated the role of LMNA in adipose tissue by developing a novel mouse model of lipodystrophy. Transgenic mice were generated that express the LMNA mutation that causes familial partial lipodystrophy of the Dunnigan type (FPLD2).

Looking at New Unexpected Disease Targets in LMNA-Linked Lipodystrophies in the Light of Complex Cardiovascular Phenotypes: Implications for Clinical Practice

open access: yesCells, 2020
Variants in LMNA, encoding A-type lamins, are responsible for laminopathies including muscular dystrophies, lipodystrophies, and progeroid syndromes. Cardiovascular laminopathic involvement is classically described as cardiomyopathy in striated muscle ...

Epithelial stem cells In Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) and restrictive dermopathy (RD) are two rare genetic disorders that affect children. Complications from cardiovascular disease, including atherosclerosis, are the most common cause of death in HGPS, which ...
