Dilated cardiomyopathy: reconceptualization of the problem

Российский кардиологический журнал, 2019
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a complex, etiologically heterogeneous myocardial disease, which is one of the main causes of heart failure and heart transplantation.

The farnesyl transferase inhibitor (FTI) lonafarnib improves nuclear morphology in ZMPSTE24-deficient fibroblasts from patients with the progeroid disorder MAD-B

Nucleus, 2023
Several related progeroid disorders are caused by defective post-translational processing of prelamin A, the precursor of the nuclear scaffold protein lamin A, encoded by LMNA.

Serum lipidomics meets cardiac magnetic resonance imaging: profiling of subjects at risk of dilated cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), characterized by left ventricular dilatation and systolic dysfunction, constitutes a significant cause for heart failure, sudden cardiac death or need for heart transplantation.

Epigenetics in LMNA-Related Cardiomyopathy

Cells, 2023
Mutations in the gene for lamin A/C (LMNA) cause a diverse range of diseases known as laminopathies. LMNA-related cardiomyopathy is a common inherited heart disease and is highly penetrant with a poor prognosis. In the past years, numerous investigations

Vascular Smooth Muscle-Specific Progerin Expression Accelerates Atherosclerosis and Death in a Mouse Model of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Progerin, an aberrant protein that accumulates with age, causes the rare genetic disease Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). Patients who have HGPS exhibit ubiquitous progerin expression, accelerated aging and atherosclerosis, and ...

Reanalysis and reclassification of rare genetic variants associated with inherited arrhythmogenic syndromes [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Accurate interpretation of rare genetic variants is a challenge for clinical translation. Updates in recommendations for rare variant classification require the reanalysis and reclassification.

Altered chromosomal positioning, compaction, and gene expression with a lamin A/C gene mutation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Lamins A and C, encoded by the LMNA gene, are filamentous proteins that form the core scaffold of the nuclear lamina. Dominant LMNA gene mutations cause multiple human diseases including cardiac and skeletal myopathies.

LMNA mutation leads to cardiac sodium channel dysfunction in the Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy patient

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Pathogenic variants in the LMNA gene are known to cause laminopathies, a broad range of disorders with different clinical phenotypes. LMNA genetic variants lead to tissue-specific pathologies affecting various tissues and organs. Common manifestations of

Mammalian telomeres and their partnership with lamins [PDF]

, 2016
Chromosome ends are complex structures, which require a panel of factors for their elongation, replication, and protection. We describe here the mechanics of mammalian telomeres, dynamics and maintainance in relation to lamins.
