iPSC-Derived Endothelial Cells Affect Vascular Function in a Tissue-Engineered Blood Vessel Model of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare disorder caused by a point mutation in the Lamin A gene that produces the protein progerin. Progerin toxicity leads to accelerated aging and death from cardiovascular disease.

First Generation Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) for the Treatment of Progeria [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Hutchinson‐Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene, leading to the production of progerin, an aberrant and toxic form of lamin A. Due to its hydrophobic nature, progerin accumulates at the nuclear

Inhibition of the NLRP3 inflammasome improves lifespan in animal murine model of Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2021
Inflammation is a hallmark of aging and accelerated aging syndromes such as Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). In this study, we present evidence of increased expression of the components of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in HGPS skin ...

Progeria

open access: yesNursing & Healthcare International Journal
Progeria is a rare genetic disease with striking features that resemble accelerated aging. The inheritance pattern, paternal age effect, and lack of consanguinity argue that it is due to a sporadic dominant mutation. We have observed elevated levels of hyaluronic acid (HA) excretion in progeria patients.

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

open access: yesNucleus, 2023

Progeria and Aging—Omics Based Comparative Analysis

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Since ancient times aging has also been regarded as a disease, and humankind has always strived to extend the natural lifespan. Analyzing the genes involved in aging and disease allows for finding important indicators and biological markers for ...
