Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome: a rare premature ageing syndrome
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome is an extremely rare genetic disorder characterized by premature ageing involving the skin, bones, heart, and blood vessels. The incidence is 1 in several million births.

The emerging role of cellular senescence in renal diseases [PDF]
Cellular senescence represents the state of irreversible cell cycle arrest during cell division. Cellular senescence not only plays a role in diverse biological events such as embryogenesis, tissue regeneration and repair, ageing and tumour occurrence ...

Ageing with HIV: Challenges and biomarkers
Summary: The antiretroviral treatment (ART) developed to control HIV infection led to a revolution in the prognosis of people living with HIV (PLWH). PLWH underwent from suffering severe disease and often fatal complications at young ages to having a ...

Expression of a pathogenic mutation of SOD1 sensitizes aprataxin-deficient cells and mice to oxidative stress and triggers hallmarks of premature ageing [PDF]
Aprataxin (APTX) deficiency causes progressive cerebellar degeneration, ataxia and oculomotor apraxia in man. Cell free assays and crystal structure studies demonstrate a role for APTX in resolving 5'-adenylated nucleic acid breaks, however, APTX ...

The Changing Narratives of Death, Dying, and HIV in the United Kingdom [PDF]
Death and infection were closely linked from the start of the HIV epidemic, until successful treatments became available. The initial impact of mostly young, gay men dying from HIV was powerful in shaping UK responses.

Uremia causes premature ageing of the T cell compartment in end-stage renal disease patients
Background End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients treated with renal replacement therapy (RRT) have premature immunologically aged T cells which may underlie uremia-associated immune dysfunction.

Keap1 governs ageing-induced protein aggregation in endothelial cells
The breach of proteostasis, leading to the accumulation of protein aggregates, is a hallmark of ageing and age-associated disorders, up to now well-established in neurodegeneration.

What Lies in between Telomere and Organismal Ageing: Comparison between Replicative Senescence and Stress-Induced Premature Senescence [PDF]
A mitotic cell that rests in permanent cell cycle arrest without the ability to divide is considered as a senescent cell. Cellular senescence is essential to limit the function of cells with heavy DNA damages.
