Heterozygous LMNA mutation-carrying iPSC lines from three cardiac laminopathy patients
LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy (LMNA-DCM) is caused by pathogenic variants in the LMNA gene and is characterized by left ventricular chamber enlargement, reduced systolic function, and arrhythmia.

Myopathic lamin mutations impair nuclear stability in cells and tissue and disrupt nucleo-cytoskeletal coupling [PDF]
Lamins are intermediate filament proteins that assemble into a meshwork underneath the inner nuclear membrane, the nuclear lamina. Mutations in the LMNA gene, encoding lamins A and C, cause a variety of diseases collectively called laminopathies.

Inhibition of DNA damage response at telomeres improves the detrimental phenotypes of Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Syndrome [PDF]
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a genetic disorder characterized by premature aging features. Cells from HGPS patients express progerin, a truncated form of Lamin A, which perturbs cellular homeostasis leading to nuclear shape alterations,

Several regulatory initiatives have been made to clarify the acceptability and requirements of real‐world data and real‐world evidence (RWD/E) for the benefit/risk assessment of new medical products in Japan. The objectives of this review were to characterize the use of RWD/E in regulatory applications of new medical products and to describe the ...

This study identifies a novel molecular mechanism involving miR‐140‐5p that contributes to the pathogenesis of HGPS. By decreasing NRF2 expression, miR‐140‐5p overexpression results in downregulation of the NRF2/KEAP1/HO‐1 antioxidant pathway in HGPS fibroblasts, leading to increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, two hallmarks of ...

Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome—Current Status and Prospects for Gene Therapy Treatment
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is one of the most severe disorders among laminopathies—a heterogeneous group of genetic diseases with a molecular background based on mutations in the LMNA gene and genes coding for interacting proteins.

SUMOylation regulates mitochondrial processes, but its impact on protein import remains unclear. TOM40 is identified, a mitochondrial outer membrane channel protein, as a substrate of deSUMOylase SENP6. TOM40 SUMOylation disrupts outer membrane complex assembly, inhibits protein import, and compromises mitochondrial homeostasis.

We report a new laminopathy that includes generalized lipoatrophy, insulin-resistant diabetes, micrognathia and biopsy-proven, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in a female, caused by a de novo heterozygous mutation R133L in the lamin A/C gene (LMNA ...

A Spontaneous Fatp4/Scl27a4 Splice Site Mutation in a New Murine Model for Congenital Ichthyosis [PDF]
Congenital ichthyoses are life-threatening conditions in humans. We describe here the identification and molecular characterization of a novel recessive mutation in mice that results in newborn lethality with severe congenital lamellar ichthyosis. Mutant
