Cardiovascular Involvement in SYNE Variants: A Case Series and Narrative Review
Cardiac laminopathies encompass a wide range of diseases caused by defects in nuclear envelope proteins, including cardiomyopathy, atrial and ventricular arrhythmias and conduction system abnormalities.

AN ORPHAN PHENOTYPE OF CARDIOGENITAL LAMINOPATHY — MALOUF SYNDROME
Recent decades significantly increased the spectrum of monogenic diseases associated with mutations in the gene of lamin A/C (LMNA), that codes the proteins group performing important functions in the nucleus.

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

Hepatocyte-Specific Deletion of Mouse Lamin A/C Leads to Male-Selective SteatohepatitisSummary
Background & Aims: Lamins are nuclear intermediate filament proteins that comprise the major components of the nuclear lamina. Mutations in LMNA, which encodes lamins A/C, cause laminopathies, including lipodystrophy, cardiomyopathy, and premature aging

The Structural Basis of ZMPSTE24-Dependent Laminopathies
Lamin Loppers The nuclear lamina provides mechanical stability to the nuclear envelope and is involved in regulation of cellular processes such as DNA replication. Defects in the nuclear lamina lead to diseases such as progeria and metabolic disorders.

Inflammatory myopathy in the context of an unusual overlapping laminopathy
Summary Laminopathies are genetic disorders associated with alterations in nuclear envelope proteins, known as lamins. The LMNA gene encodes lamins A and C, and LMNA mutations have been linked to diseases involving fat (type 2 familial partial ...

Background Patients with some mutations in the lamin A/C (LMNA) gene are characterized by the presence of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), conduction abnormalities, ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT), and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Various clinical features

Assessment of fibroblast nuclear morphology aids interpretation of LMNA variants [PDF]
The phenotypic heterogeneity of Lamin A/C (LMNA) variants renders it difficult to classify them. As a consequence, many LMNA variants are classified as variant of unknown significance (VUS). A number of studies reported different types of visible nuclear

Chromatin dysfunction in stem cells facilitates aging in laminopathy-based progeria
Nuclear lamins, including A- and B-type lamins, are type V intermediate filament (IF) proteins that are ubiquitously expressed in vertebrates. A variety of human diseases are caused by LMNA mutations, collectively called laminopathies.
